Border village of Perevi, Georgia

Russia made the decision to withdraw it’s military out of border village of Perevi in October 2010. Perevi lays on disputed territory on the border of Java District of South Ossetia and Sachher District of Imeret region of Georgia. During military operations the village had strategic value for both sides. First, the only working road to three Ossetia villages went through Perevi. Secondly, from the highest point in the village, artillery could reach the Rokkski Tunnel. Therefore this territory is supervised by both Russian border patrol and Georgian police.
