"A top official of the Syrian opposition said he’s convinced Russia’s
intent is use the methods it deployed to destroy Grozny. The capital of
the Chechen Republic was the scene of bloody combat in 1994-95, and then
again in 1999-2000, early in Putin’s first presidency. At that point
leaflets were dropped offering people safe passage out of the city, and
after a brief pause the real devastation began. In 2003, the United
Nations reportedly called Grozny “the most destroyed city on earth.” The
war was over, and on Putin’s terms."http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/08/01/as-obama-dithers-syrian-rebels-in-aleppo-brace-for-putin-s-onslaught.html
