The so-called checkpoint at the entrance of occupied Akhalgori, which has been closed since 2019, reopened for Easter

The so-called checkpoint at the entrance of occupied Akhalgori is currently open. According to the available information, until April 25, it will be possible to move in the direction of the occupied settlement for those who own the so-called entry permit or the so-called passport of the occupied Tskhinvali region. Nugzar Tinikashvili, the governor of Akhalgori municipality, told InterPressNews about it.

According to Tinikashvili, the entrance to occupied Akhalgori has been closed since September 5, 2019.

"This humanitarian issue has been repeatedly raised by the Georgian central government at various meetings, and the de facto ruler of occupied Tskhinvali has only now decided to temporarily lift the ban on movement," Nugzar Tinikashvili said.

We would like to remind you that since 2019, only seriously ill patients have been transferred from the occupied Akhalgori to the territory controlled by the central government of Georgia.
