Comment on Activity: One-sided violence was committed after the outbreak of the so-called Second Chechen War in August 1999. Chechen rebels killed villagers that refused to let them on their territory.
Comment on Yearly Battle Related Deaths: It should be noted that the perpetrators of the apartment bombings near Moscow - killing more than 200 - could not clearly been identified. These incidents have therefore not been included in the database.

Terminated: NO
2004 Conflict Archive
Comment on Activity: A series of attacks on civilians took place in August 2004. Most notably, two planes crashed with suicide bombers onboard and a bomb detonated in a metro station in Moscow. Chechen field commander, Shamil Basayev, claimed to have masterminded the attacks. He stated that units of his Shakhid battalion, Riyad us-Saliheen were the perpetrators. Another group Al-Islambouli Brigades had earlier claimed responsibility. However, researchers state that Basayev’s troops are the most likely perpetrators given their attack history.
