- Story Text: Russian soldiers in camps near the rebel Chechen capital of Grozny made their own New Year preparations on Saturday (December 31), decorating trees with empty bottles and plastic bags.
Refugees in Chechnya faced the New Year in the breakaway Russian republic with despair, saying they hardly had much to celebrate with relatives and friends dead and little hope of a resolution to staunch Russian advances.
