"Rustavi-2": KGB of South Ossetia interferes into the work of OSCE and UN missions
Today, representatives of the OSCE Mission and engineers from the United Nations Mission have arrived to Tskhinvali for preparation to implementation of one of the projects. According to the news item of the Georgian TV Company "Rustavi-2", the work of the members of international organizations was disrupted by the KGB of South Ossetia.
The members of international organizations came to examine the conserved garbage dump located in the southern suburb of Tskhinvali (Tsarz District) under the environment protection project.
The engineers made video and photo filming of the area. Representatives of the Tskhinvali KGB who arrived to the venue confiscated the filmed materials from the members of the Missions of the OSCE and the United Nations, searched their car, and took away the photo and video cameras. According to the "Rustavi-2", force was applied in the process.
The monitoring observers' group of the peacekeeping forces was informed about the incident.
The "Caucasian Knot" correspondent reports that so far the representatives of the OSCE Mission refrain from any comments.
