Answer:

North Ossetia

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2004, Russia experienced the most devastating terrorist attack in its history. The terrorist attack took place in Beslan, the capital of the autonomous region of North Ossetia, and it was organized and executed by a Chechen terrorist organization. The purpose of the terrorist attack was to revenge the deaths of the Chechen people that lost their lives during the Russo-Chechen wars, so they made a siege of a school in which there were lot of children at that time. The Russian special forced initially tried to negotiate for the hostages, but the terrorists were not letting anyone go, so the special forces were order to get inside and eliminate them all. They did so, and indeed eliminated all terrorists, but the problem was that the total deaths were 330 people, lot of which were civilians, and lot of them children.
