Georgia Detains Russian Military Convoy
A Russian military convoy en route from the Akhalkalaki military base to Armenia was detained on July 28 by the Georgian Border Guard Service at the Armenian border after recovering five machine guns in one of the armored vehicles, the Georgian Border Guard Department reported.
The convoy, which is currently at the Armenian border, consists of four trucks and four armored vehicles moving to Armenia as part of the withdrawal process of the Russian military base from Akhalkalaki.
Officials say that the convoy was stopped because the Russian officers had no appropriate documents authorizing the transportation of arms.
