The Russian authorities have designated a 14-year-old boy from Orenburg as a terrorist, according to a Telegram channel that tracks updates to Russian financial watchdog Rosfinmonitoring’s official list of “terrorists and extremists.”
“For the first time, a person born in 2011 has been added to the list. He is now its youngest member,” the channel’s authors reported. The teenager is identified as Amir Tulegenovich Shagatov, born in Orenburg on April 13, 2011.
The report notes that an asterisk appears next to Shagatov’s name, indicating that he is suspected of involvement in terrorism. The specific charges against him have not been made public.
