The Human Impact - Chechnya

February 1995
Following the destruction of Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, we look to the victims of a war few Russians wanted. For the first time Russian reporting on a Russian war has eluded government censorship, although the country's only independent TV station may lose its licence for reporting too freely. Russian mothers flock to Chechnya in search of their soldier sons - there are scenes of emotional reunions as well as a mother agonising at home. Two former Grozny inhabitants sadly contemplate their ruined home. Chechens' disillusionment with both Dudayev and Moscow is echoed in an interview with the Chechen Provisional Council. Many Chechens are appalled by Moscow's strong-arm tactics. Some vow never to concede to the Kremlin - itself shaken by international criticism of the war. Imposing rule on shattered Grozny is a daunting task.
