The Politics of Terror. “The war in Chechnya is not over. More than a year after
the federal troops first intervened, bombs, mines and
bullets continue to kill civilians. Despite the illusion of
normalization upheld by the Russian authorities, and the
resignation of the international community, the violence
against civilians is ongoing, and has merely changed its
appearance. Data from Chechnya hospitals shows that
the undiscriminate use of force is still causing many
civilian casualties.” Médecins sans Frontières
