Russia's National Anti-Terrorist Committee said Khaled Yusef Mukhammed al Emirat was among its most wanted insurgents and had participated in the planning of nearly all the suicide bomb attacks in Russia in recent years. A decade after federal forces drove a separatist government from power in Chechnya in a war that started in 1999, Moscow is struggling to contain a growing Islamist insurgency in the North Caucasus. Russian officials say the insurgency depends on ideological and financial patronage from the Middle East and militant Islamist groups like al Qaeda, although analysts dispute the extent of those links. Known by his code name Moganned, al Emirat had been in the North Caucasus since 1999 and was shot dead by law enforcement agencies in Chechnya, Russian news agencies quoted a statement from the National Anti-Terrorism Committee as saying. A website sympathetic to the insurgency, kavkazcenter.com, said later Friday it had received confirmation of his death. National Anti-Terrorism Committee officials could not immediately be reached for comment on the reports. A suicide bomb attack claimed by the insurgent leader Doku Umarov killed 37 people in Moscow's busiest airport in January. Twin suicide bomb attacks killed 40 on the Moscow metro in March 2010. The committee said al Emirat had been competing with Umarov for power within the insurgency, according to the reports. Chechnya still plays a major role in the insurgency, but much of the violence has shifted to the neighboring regions of Dagestan and Ingushetia.
