The Head of the South Ossetian delegation in the IPRM format will be replaced with the new leader

Deputy Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy of South Ossetia for post-conflict settlement Khokh Gagloyty has completed his work as head of the South Ossetian delegation in the format of Mechanisms to prevent and respond to incidents (IPRM).
As reported by Gagloyty after the IPRM meeting held in the Georgian village of Ergneti, he will end his duties as head of the delegation of South Ossetia in the format of IPRM and by the next meeting will be introduced the new leader.
Turning to the issues considered at today's meeting, Gagloyty has said that the parties have noted the raised number of the Georgian citizens detained at the state border between South Ossetia and Georgia.
"In our view, this is because of the reluctance of the Georgian side to conduct informational work with the local population with respect to the borderline," - said Gagloyty.
According to him, out of the 15 detainees 14 have been released today after payment of the corresponding fine.
"During this period it was also recorded three cases of firing from the Georgian side at the border marks at the state border - said Gagloyty. - In particular, to the north of the Georgian village of Ditsi and near the settlement of Kirbali. According to the Georgian party, there is no evidence that the firing was from the Georgian side. We said that it was so obvious that we did not even have to present photographic material, because the representatives of the observer mission were informed in due time and they attended these border areas. "
Gagloyty has also added that tomorrow in Tskhinval will arrive the OSCE co-chair Angelo Gnedinger together with the independent expert, which will investigate cases of the missing citizens of South Ossetia.
