MOSCOW, July 2 (RIA Novosti) - A commander of the Russian-led peacekeeping contingent deployed in the conflict zone between Georgia and breakaway Abkhazia accused Georgian security forces of setting off a new explosion in the region on Wednesday morning.
The blast went off near a Russian peacekeeping checkpoint on the border between Georgia and Abkhazia. No one was killed or injured, Georgian television reported.
"A car with unidentified people inside passed through the checkpoint in Georgia," Alexander Diordiyev said. "Georgian troops did not even try to stop the car."
He said Georgian security services' acts were aimed at provoking peacekeepers and destabilizing the area.
The incident follows two sets of explosions on Sunday and Monday in the breakaway province. Abkhaz authorities blamed both incidents on Georgian security forces.
