Kokoity Hails Shooting of Georgian Army Helicopter
South Ossetian leader Eduard Kokoity on September 4 hailed the unrecognized republic?s forces for opening fire on a Georgian army helicopter which, as he put it, ?violated South Ossetian airspace? on September 3, the South Ossetian Press and Information Committee reported.
?A violation of the South Ossetian border is inadmissible. We have warned the Georgian side a number of times to stop provocative flights over the republic. But our warnings have been ignored. We will no longer give warnings. Relevant agencies will fulfill their appropriate tasks to protect our border,? Kokoity said while speaking at a meeting with his cabinet members.
