Punitive Expeditions

in the campaign “Punitive Raids and the Economic Strangulation of the Nokhchi (1691–1700)”

The regular army of the Tsardom of Muscovy carried out armed raids on the territories of Nokhchi societies: the historian Ya. Z. Akhmadov states that in 1691–1700 «punitive expeditions were carried out by the tsarist authorities in retaliation against the rebel Cossacks and their Highlander allies»[1] and records «retaliatory punitive raids by tsarist forces»[1].
