YEREVAN, AUGUST 19, ARMENPRESS;Armenia sent a 12-member repairmen team
to Georgia to help it repair a key Georgian railway bridge exploded
on August 16.
The bridge is located near the central Georgian town of Gori, 40
km west of Tbilisi. The Georgian government accused the Russians of
blowing it up on Saturday, a charge strongly denied by Moscow.
Susana Tonoyan, a spokeswoman for Armenian transport and communications
ministry, said repairs on the heavily damaged bridge got underway on
Monday, but she declined to say when the repair will be over. Earlier
Georgian authorities said it will be over in 2 days.
