Police in Chechnya say that rebels have killed four local police officers in two separate attacks.
The regional branch of Russia's Interior Ministry says three policemen have been killed when rebels detonated a radio-controlled landmine.
It says in a statement that the explosion occurred early Sunday in the village of Sadovyi near the provincial capital, Grozny.
The regional Interior Ministry branch also says that another police officer was killed late Saturday by rebels who ambushed his vehicle near the southern village of Gekhi.
Large-scale battles in Chechnya ended years ago, but militants continue to stage ambushes and landmine explosions against authorities. Violence also has often spilled into neighboring provinces.
