    Four armed Russian peacekeepers (one is originally from Armenia, two

    Georgian law enforcement agencies in the zone of the
    Georgian-Abkhazian conflict. Police of the Samegrelo district stated
    that the Russian peacekeepers did not have documents. They refused to
    give up and Georgian policemen had to open fire in the air. After
    that the peacekeepers surrendered. The peacekeepers stated that they
    were looking for a horse, which ran away from their unit. Georgian
    policemen currently question the soldiers. They will soon be passed
    over to the command of Russian peacekeepers.
