As if more proof were needed that the Chechens will continue to make life miserable for the Russians, on Thursday unknown assailants shot at the third-story windows of Oleg Lobov’s office in the Grozny headquarters of the Russian Federation executive administration. Lobov is Boris Yeltsin’s representative to Chechnya. (9)
