In September the georgian authorities are going to organize the so-called «march of peace» to the borders of South Ossetia. Considering the aggressive rhetoric of the management of Georgia, promising to solve the problem of South Ossetia in the nearest future and as a whole the intense situation in the zone of the georgian-ossetian conflict, this action can result in nothing except for the next coil of intensity. There had already been a similar march in the history of the georgian-ossetian relations.

As they have informed at the south-ossetian part of JCC, on August, 15th the georgian police detained at an illegal (that is placed without the permission of the international Joint Control Commission on settlement of the georgian-ossetian conflict) post and did not let pass a passenger bus, following the ossetian village Artsev. The reason of preventing from movement of the passenger bus the georgian policemen named the fact that there were three bags of flour, that had been bought by 45 passengers of the bus by sharing the cost.

The liquidation of illegal cuts on the site of the water-sluice Edis - Tskhinval, controllable by the georgian side, proceeds. The earlier held monitoring has confirmed that problems for water supply of Tskhinval create the numerous cuts into the water-sluice on the piece, passing through the georgian-populated villages Kemert - Kheiti. According to the mayor of Tskhinval Robert Guliev, «yesterday the georgian repair brigade under the direction of the ossetian experts liquidated 12 cuts into the water-sluice, 3 of which were more than 80 mm in diameter. The georgian side did not create any obstacles in carrying out of the repair works and even has given all the necessary technical equipment».
