Russia Denies Violating Georgia Airspace

Contrary to Georgia’s claims, no aircraft from the Russian air forces conducted any flights at Russian-Georgian border over Shatili on September 7, the Russian Ministry of Defense said on Thursday.

The Georgian Foreign Ministry said that three Russian Mi-8 helicopters intruded 3 kilometers deep into the Georgian airspace and flew back to Russia fifteen minutes after circling over a Georgian border guard post close to Shatili village.

“All flights of aircraft of military purposes are tracked by means of objective control and are conducted in strict observance of international rules… without violating borders of other state,” the Russian MoD said.
