Despite the ceasefire that President Sakorzy managed to negotiated a number of journalists have seen, filmed and interviewed a number of Russian soldiers. These soldiers were from Checnya and some of the hardest fighters in the Russian army. They told British journalists they were there to occupy and restore peace. Gori is well outside the break away region of South Ossetia. South Ossetian separatists are looting the town of Gori and scaring what residents are left.
As I have done for the past few days I will update this post with more information as I can find it. Any tips or criticism please leave in the comments. Praise is also welcome ;-)
UPDATE 1: A USAF C-17 is to send aid to Georgia. Additionally Condoleezza rice will be travelling to Tbilisi and Paris to try and find an agreement of peace. Which is currently very fragile.
