History[edit]
1999 massacre[edit]
During the Second Chechen War, after a battle between Chechen rebels and the Russian Army, a Chechen native of the village killed at least 34 Russian villagers. He was later lynched by his victims' relatives.[4][5] The attack resulted in the majority of ethnic Russian families in Mekenskaya leaving.[6]
