"Russia and Georgia were effectively at war
last night after a festering conflict in the
Caucasus plunged out of control following a
Georgian military attempt to recover its
breakaway region of South Ossetia.
Tanks and artillery from Russia's 58th army
were in Tskhinvali, South Ossetia's capital,
to prevent Georgian forces attacking Russian
peacekeepers and civilians, the defence
ministry in Moscow said."

South Ossetia:
The region won the independence from Georgia
after the 1991-1992 War for Independence. In
2006, the de facto independent republic of
South Ossetia held a referendum about the
independence. 99 percent of the votes were in
favor of the independence from Georgia.

Fierce clashes were seen between Georgian and
Russian forces in South Ossetia, a
pro-Russian autonomous region of Georgia.
"I saw bodies lying on the streets, around
ruined buildings, in cars," Lyudmila
Ostayeva, a resident of the South Ossetia
capital, Tskhinvali, told The Associated
Press.
"It's impossible to count them now. There is
hardly a single building left undamaged," she
said after fleeing to a village near the
Russian border, AP reported.
One U.S. State Department official called the
conflict a "very dangerous situation" and
said diplomatic moves are afoot around the
globe to stop it.
