Административная граница между Грузией и Южной Осетией закрыта на три дня

В субботу была закрыта административная граница (ABL) между Грузией и самопровозглашенной республикой Южная Осетия.

Такое решение было принято властями самопровозглашенной Южной Осетии, якобы, с целью "обеспечения безопасности" в период годовщины грузино-российской войны, разразившейся 8 августа 2008 года.

Как сообщает Agenda.ge, все контрольно-пропускные пункты вдоль ABL будут оставаться закрытыми до 9 часов утра 9 августа, заявили власти в Цхинвали.

После конфликта 2008 года вдоль ABL, протяженность которой 400км, постепенно был возведен забор, и сильно ограничено передвижение. В прошлом границу неоднократно закрывали, особенно во время больших праздников или спорных политических моментов.
