Historically I can't find any significant example of sanctions that helped topple a dictator from outside (Iran, Cuba, Syria, ...)

It might very well be inflicting lots of suffering on the populations, for no result.

What would be the better alternative? It seems direct military action by NATO/else is far removed from the table. Should the rest of the world remain silent and allow this to continue without any repercussions?

I am genuinely asking, as I have not been presented with any preferable alternatives.

Sanctions did a lot to end apartheid - granted, not a single dictator
