At around 1800 Moscow time on Tuesday unknown gunmen opened fire at a Russian frontier guard unit. The incident occurred in the vicinity of the Kirigo pass, near the Georgian border. Nobody was hurt in the attack. According to the press-service of the North-Caucasian regional directorate of the Federal Border Guard Service of Russia, the chief of the directorate Gen-Col Yevgeniy Bolkhovitin informed the chief of the Georgian border troops of the incident in a telegram where he emphasized that the Russian side regards the incident “as a provocation against the Russian border troops”, especially since a Georgian frontier post Girevi is located not far from the place where the incident occurred.
