Barbed wire fences are being installed at the border between Georgia and South Ossetia, at the village Atotsi of Kareli district, Shida Katrli region.
Border guards appeared at the boundary lines yesterday and started construction work to divide the regions today.
Part of local population's agricultural lands are located in the occupied area.
As a result of the changing boundary, Georgian territory changed by 100 to 500 metres, local people claimed.
Georgian Government members have already made an assessment of the incident.
"Work has temporarily resumed, the reason is unknown yet but soon it will become obvious," Georgia's Region Development and Infrastructure Minister Davit Narmania said.
"Several days ago I was at the breakaway region and saw local residents. The situation is stable and in this regard, the activity is not observed,” he said.
