    The summer tourist season in Georgia has been greatly affected by
    the Russian aggression.

    Most holidaymakers left urgently as soon as they heard news of air
    strikes on Georgian territory. Most of these tourists were staying
    at one of the Black Sea resorts in Adjara. The beginning of military
    clashes in South Ossetia had little or no effect on numbers, but as
    soon as Russia bombed the Adjara-Khelvachauri region panic spread
    among holidaymakers and they fled.

    Many Armenians on holiday in Adjara left speedily using back routes
    through Akhaltsikhe. The many Russian tourists who were also visiting
    Adjara returned home via Ukraine.
