Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov ordered his troops across the border into Ingushetia to avenge a suicide bomb attack against fellow Kremlin appointee in the region, Ingush leader Yunus-Bek Yevkurov, who is fighting for his life in hospital.

The militants ambushed a convoy of Kadyrov's troops on Saturday, firing automatic weapons and grenade launchers in one of the deadliest attacks in the volatile North Caucasus region in recent years.

The head of Chechnya's interior ministry, Ruslan Alkhanov vowed retribution for the ambush. "We will take all measures to hunt down and destroy these bandits," Itar Tass quoted him as saying.

The Chechen death toll may rise as 10 other policemen are being treated for severe injuries. The cars in the convoy, which was carrying 35 troops, were left burning as the Chechen troops scrambled to return fire into the surrounding forests, Itar Tass reported.
