The de facto leadership of Georgia’s eastern occupied Tskhinvali (South Ossetia) region has announced plans to close the so-called border with Georgia for two days, due to May 9 celebrations.

In connection with the provision of security measures during the events dedicated to the 74th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War, from 8 pm on May 8, 2019, the border with Georgia will be closed,” Tskhinvali reported.

They said that the so-called border will reopen on May 10, at 6 pm.

The closure of the so-called borders causes problems for locals, who need to visit other regions of Georgia for every-day necessities.
