Sagra, Russia

Sagra (Russian: Сагра) is a rural locality (a settlement) under the administrative jurisdiction of the town of Verkhnyaya Pyshma in Sverdlovsk Oblast, Russia, located 30 kilometers (19 mi) northwest of Yekaterinburg.

The settlement stands on the Black River, which flows into the nearby Isetskoe Lake.

Sagra's name comes from northern Russian dialect word Sogra, meaning "swamp overgrown with low forests".

One of the attackers was killed during the incident, a twenty-eight-year-old Georgian-born Azerbaijani man named Faig Musaev.
