    Another train with Russian military hardware has been prepared for
    leaving the Tsalka railway station in Georgia, Colonel Vladimir
    Kuparadze, deputy commander of the Russian military force in
    Transcaucasia, told Interfax-Military News Agency.

    "The train will leave Tsalka early on Tuesday and deliver to Russia 22
    self-propelled artillery systems and 72 tonnes of ammunition and other
    property of the 62nd Russian military base stationed in Akhalkalaki,"
    Kuparadze said by phone from Tbilisi.

    "It will be the 12th train with Russian materiel leaving Georgia in
    the framework of Russian military bases withdrawal from the country,"
    he said.

    Seven trains with hardware, armaments and other property of the 62nd
    base and the 12th base in Batumi earlier left for Russia through
    Azerbaijan. Four more trains left Batumi for Armenia to deliver
    addition armaments and materiel to the 102nd Russian base stationed
    in the town of Gyumri.

    The Russian military bases are to be withdrawn from Georgia before
    the end of 2008.
