Timeline
Yunus-bek Bamatgireyevich Yevkurov (born 23 July 1963) is a Russian colonel general and politician.
Yevkurov, an ethnic Ingush, was born on 23 July 1963 into a peasant family of 12 children, consisting of five sisters and six brothers.
He graduated from the same school that was later the scene of the Beslan massacre.
Yevkurov was conscripted by the Soviet Army in 1982, serving in the Naval Infantry of the Pacific Fleet.
In 1989, he graduated from the Ryazan Guards Higher Airborne Command School.
Yevkurov continued his military education, graduating from the Frunze Military Academy in 1997 and from the General Staff Academy in 2004.
He is a career soldier, paratrooper, and Hero of the Russian Federation who was involved in numerous conflicts where Russia played a key role, including Kosovo (1999) and Chechnya.
In June 1999, Yevkurov was stationed in the Bosnian town of Ugljevik with the Russian peacekeepers under the auspices of SFOR.
On 12 June, he led a task force on a swift 500-km-long march, which aimed to secure the Pristina International Airport ahead of NATO troops, thus ensuring a Russian presence in Kosovo after the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia.
This led to a standoff with NATO troops.
Yevkurov has had various positions of command within the Russian Airborne Troops and has participated in counterterrorist operations in the North Caucasus.
During the course of the Second Chechen War in 2000, he was in command of the 217th Guards Airborne Regiment (98th Guards Airborne Division).
While on a reconnaissance mission, Yevkurov's team discovered a house where a group of captured Russian soldiers was held.
Having neutralized the guards and infiltrated the building, the team was surrounded by Chechen reinforcements, resulting in armed combat.
The Russian troops were able to break through the encirclement while Yevkurov was providing cover for the evacuation of the wounded.
He personally carried a soldier to safety despite sustaining an injury himself.
Twelve imprisoned soldiers were rescued.
On 13 April 2000, Yevkurov, for his courage, was presented with the Hero of Russia award, the country's highest title of honor.
In 2004, Yevkurov was appointed to be Deputy Chief of the Intelligence Directorate of the Volga-Urals Military District.
For over 10 years he was the head of the southern Russian republic of Ingushetia, appointed by President Dmitry Medvedev on 30 October 2008.
The following day, the People's Assembly of the Republic of Ingushetia, the republic's regional parliament, voted in favor of Yevkurov's appointment, making him the third Head of Ingushetia.
On 30 October 2008, Yevkurov replaced the highly unpopular Murat Zyazikov as the head of Ingushetia.
Zyazikov's dismissal and Yevkurov's appointment were received with much enthusiasm from the Ingush population.
On 22 June 2009, Yevkurov was seriously injured following a car-bomb attack on his motorcade in the city of Nazran.
As head of Ingushetia, Yevkurov claimed he had succeeded in stabilising the crime situation and bringing about positive social changes within the Russian republic.
On 22 June 2009, Yevkurov was seriously injured following a car-bomb attack on his motorcade in the city of Nazran at roughly 08:20 local time (04:20 GMT).
In the incident, a Toyota Camry filled with explosives rammed the Yevkurov's convoy in what is believed to be a suicide bomb attack.
One escorting policeman died on the spot; Yevkurov's driver and cousin Ramzan died a few days later in a hospital.
Yevkurov's brother Uvais was among the injured.
Yevkurov suffered a ruptured liver, a severe concussion, and several cracked ribs, but was expected to survive following surgery.
Yevkurov was then airlifted to a hospital in Moscow and was sent to intensive care with damage to his skull and internal organs, according to the New York Times.
Though no group has yet claimed responsibility, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev accused Islamist militants of carrying out the attack, condemning the "terrorist attack".
Speaking on Russian television, Medvedev claimed that Yevkurov "did a lot to restore order ... and the bandits obviously didn't like that kind of activity".
Russian news agency RIAN, quoting an unnamed Kremlin source, reported that executive authority in Ingushetia has been temporarily transferred to the prime minister, Rashid Gaisanov, who became acting Head by Russian presidential decree.
The source claimed that "President Medvedev authorized Gaysanov to take operative management of the republic, and he has all the required authority for that".
Gaisanov remained the acting head of Ingushetia until Yevkurov returned to office.
The attack followed other attacks on republic officials in June 2009.
On 10 June, the deputy chief justice of the Ingushetian Supreme Court, Aza Gazgireyeva, was gunned down in Nazran shortly after dropping her children off at school, and on 13 June the former deputy prime minister, Bashir Aushev, was shot dead outside his home.
Since September 2018, he faced opposition at home, following the controversial land transfer deal with the neighboring Republic of Chechnya and it was announced he was to leave the role on 24 June 2019.
He was appointed as a Deputy Defence Minister by President Putin on 8 July 2019.
