It was the deadliest attack in the area in 14 years. The Russian authorities have designated the attack as an act of terror, but it was not immediately clear who was responsible. The gunmen targeted a police station as well as synagogues and Orthodox churches. Fifteen of the victims were police officers. One was an Orthodox priest, who was killed in his church. It is not known whether the attackers were specifically targeting members of law enforcement. Five attackers were eventually killed by security forces, officials said. The attack was reminiscent of the intense violence that gripped the Northern Caucasus, a predominantly Muslim region, in the late 1990s and early 2000s. That bloodshed was caused by a combination of Islamic fundamentalism and organized crime. Suppressing it became one of the central bragging points for the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, after he came to power in 1999. That legacy is now being threatened by a resurgence of violence. In March, four gunmen killed 145 people at a concert hall near Moscow. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for that attack. Analysis: The assault on Sunday has put a spotlight on the mounting challenges that Russia faces as the war in Ukraine taxes its economy and security apparatus. [Soldiers stand around a tank tred.

Gallant was in Washington yesterday talking to the C.I.A. director and other U.S. officials about Gaza and Hezbollah, as the U.S. works to head off a new Israeli military push in Lebanon.

It’s unclear if the number of deaths this year is higher than in previous years — Saudi Arabia doesn’t regularly share those statistics. Officials said that most of the dead had not been registered for the hajj. Pilgrims with permits are transported in air-conditioned buses and rest in air-conditioned tents, while those without are left with little protection from the heat. The toll has exposed an underbelly of scam tour operators and smugglers who profit off Muslims desperate to make the journey.
