The Akhmadov brothers (Russian: Братья Ахмадовы) were Chechen Salafi leaders and implacable enemies of Russia who took part in the First and Second Chechen Wars.
The Akhmadov brothers (Uvays, Ruslan, Rizvan, Apti, Imran, Abu, Ramzan, Khuta and Zelimkhan) controlled their home city of Urus-Martan during the late 1990s. All nine brothers reportedly fought against Russia.
