Such provocative statements are part of the misinformation campaign conducted by the occupation forces in the vicinity of the village of Chorchana of the Khashuri municipality and in general, to justify their provocative actions along the occupation line, - the State Security Service said in response to the statement of the de facto security committee of so-called South Ossetia.
As InterPressNews was told by the State Security Service, the central government uses all leverage to ensure the safety of the local population on the ground.
"Out hotline is working in a permanent mode and information is timely provided to our international partners," the State Security Service said.
The so-called security committee was quoted today by the Sputnik agency as saying that the activities of the illegal checkpoint and Georgian security forces near the village of Tsneli significantly increases the risk of military threat on the border and may even become the cause of an open armed conflict.
