A Chechen man prays during the First Battle of Grozny, January 1995. The flame in the background is coming from a gas pipeline which was hit by shrapnel. [968×1487]
No one seems very concerned. Just a regular Tuesday in Chechnya.

I’m curious to know if there was much publicity about the Wars in Chechnya in the West during its timeframe – it’s rarely mentioned that there was such a conflict in the first place nowadays.

I can thoroughly recommend One Soldiers War in Chechnya by Arkady Babkochenko.
It lays bare the insanity, cruelty and madness of what the Russians did in Chechnya.
