Dear brothers, sisters, friends, and fellow our patriotic citizens,

Waynakh Online is the only English, Turkish and French source on the internet related to the Chechen people. As is well known, our website’s motto is “Independent Chechen Republic of Ichkeria”. However, it must be noted that Waynakh Online does not represent the viewpoint of any state structures or the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria government. The main aim of Waynakh Online is to document the Russian occupation of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, as well as break the strong Russian disinformation about the crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide against the civilian population of Chechnya, which are all being committed by Russian military forces. The website also tries to introduce the rich culture and painful history of the Chechen nation. Our editorial board believes in the necessity of a strong Diaspora, so along with news from the Russian occupied Chechen territory, the website provides careful monitoring of the activities in the Diaspora as well as the situation facing Chechen refugees around the world. For these reasons, the website is organized into various sections: News, Articles, and Interviews, Chechen culture, Chechen language, Chechen music and Chechen history.

Our independent website was founded in 2000 by a group of old Chechen Diaspora members in Turkey. The website started its run as a free domain at Waynakh.cjb.net, but since 2005 it has operated from Waynakh.com. In a short period, the website has become the most popular source of news on the Chechen issue, especially among Western academicians and freelance researchers. Now the site receives thousands of visitors each day from all around the world. However, after 2005, well-known problems began to happen. Ongoing politically motivated pressure which aimed to shut down our website, fabricated claims which asked for penal proceedings against the Waynakh Online administration and strongly orchestrated DDoS attacks have left us with no peace. We have not given up and we continue to fight against injustice.

However, everyone has limits and we are close to our end if you, our supporters, do not advocate for Waynakh Online. At this point, hosting providers either do not want to render their services to us, or they demand over the top fees because of the DDoS attacks and pressure from Russia.

Today we are asking you to support Waynakh Online. We are only asking you to help protect the site and allow it to survive. Please help us continue our daily translations from all around the world as well as the AR-GE projects related to the online education of the Chechen language.

Please do not forget that only together can we can keep Waynakh Online alive. It is about time to cooperate!

We sincerely thank you and express our gratitude for your monetary and spiritual support.

Best Regards,

Waynakh Online Administration
