Honorable Mention: < 1 ... 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ... 40 >; Zara stands in the kitchen of her small brick house in the Promzhilbaza camp situated in the Sleptsovskaya region of Ingushetia. She has lived in Ingushetia for six years but occasionally returns home to Chechnya, normally she says, for funerals. Zara suffers, as do many IDPs, from high blood pressure and she finds it impossible to sleep. At two or three in the morning, the helicopters begin their sorties and the silence is intermittently broken by the distant sound of missile and gunfire, ”I end up crawling under the bed scared witless and murmuring to myself that I'm lucky to have an overcrowded hovel in Ingushetia. At least there I am able to sleep”, she confides. Southern Russia. April 2005.
