Conspiracy Theories
Because the invasion of Dagestan served as a trigger for the Second Chechen War that led to an eventual Russian victory, a number of conspiracy theories claimed it was not a Wahhabi attempt to create a Caucasian Emirate, but rather a false flag attack orchestrated by the Kremlin. Not a single person actually involved in the Dagestan War has been able to confirm any of them.
