2013 Fire

On April 3, 2013, the Grozny-City Towers Facade Clocks in Grozny, Chechnya, Russia caught fire and one side of the 40-story building[2] was engulfed in flames, which burned for approximately 8 hours.[3] No one was injured or killed in the blaze. More than 100 firefighters and 16 fire engines fought the blaze.[4] The building known locally as "Olympus" housed a 5 star luxury hotel and an apartment belonging to French film star and French tax exile Gérard Depardieu, whose apartment was on the 27th floor facing the "Heart of Grozny."[5][6] The structure's interior survived largely intact however and has been fully repaired and reopened as of 2015.
