Barsuki ( Russian Барсуки́ ) is a village (selo) in the Republic of Ingushetia in Russia with 10,333 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).

geography

The place is on the northern edge of the Greater Caucasus about 10 km as the crow flies north of the republic capital Magas on the left of the Sunscha at the confluence of the Nasranka river. Above (northwest) runs the Alchantchurtsky Irrigation Canal, which directs water from the Terek to northern Ingushetia (east of Malgobek ) and to Chechnya north of Grozny .

Barsuki belongs to the Nazranovsky Rajon and is located about 5 km northeast of its administrative center Nazran , to which it is directly connected. To the northeast, Barsuki passes into the village of Plijewo . Barsuki is the seat and only village of the rural community (selskoje posselenije) Barsuki.

history

Details of the establishment of the town are not known. According to tradition, the village was created in the second half of the 19th century when Ingush people moved from the Aul Targim in the southern, mountainous part of Ingushetia to the plain. In the period of the deportation of the Ingush population from 1944 to 1957 the village was predominantly of Ossetians lived and carried the Ossetian name Chordschin.

In 1995, the village, as well as several surrounding places, was incorporated into Nazran, whereby its population increased several times to over 100,000, and formed one of its six urban rajons. As part of the administrative reform in Russia, Barsuki and the neighboring Plijewo were spun off again in 2009 and have since formed independent rural communities in the Nasranowski rajon.

traffic

Barsuki is on the regional road that connects the Sunsha Nazran with Karabulak , Troitskaya and the city of Sunscha on the left and runs parallel to the R217 Kawkas federal highway (formerly M29; Pavlovskaya - Azerbaijani border), which follows the right bank of the river.

The Beslan - Grozny - Gudermes railway , which was opened in 1894 and is the closest railway station with passenger services, is located in Nazran. Since the Chechen wars , the line has only been in operation for freight traffic and as far as the Slepzovskaya station (near Sunscha) not far from the border with Chechnya.
