Presented by Russian author and attorney Ilya Milyukov, Chronicles
of the First and Second Chechen War presents the main events of the
First (1994-1996) and Second (1999-2009) Wars in Chechnya, Russia's
deadliest conflicts since World War II. The First War began in
December 1994 and lasted for one year and nine months, ending in
August 1996. There were two major urban battles - the Battle of the
Chechen capital of Grozny from December 1994 to March 1995 and the
Battle of Grozny in August 1996 - and two major battles in the
rural areas, the Russian offensive in the Southern Chechnya in May
and June 1995, and fighting in the foothills part of the Republic
from February to May 1996. The Second War began in August 1999 and
lasted much longer - until mid-April 2009, for almost ten years. It
also included a major urban battle, and it again occurred in New
Year's Eve - the Battle of Grozny in December 1999 - February 2000.
There was also a major battle in the countryside - the Battle for
the village of Komsomolskoye, located in Urus-Martanovsky District,
in March 2000. And there were also two large attacks outside
Chechnya -in Moscow in October 2002, and in the North Ossetian town
of Beslan in September 2004. During these war, Russian federal
troops took heavy losses, while the number of civilian deaths
reached nearly 400,000 people. Milyukov's expert and meticulous
chronicle lists the major events of these conflicts soberly and
without editorial comment to document their events in all their
brutality and horror.
