Georgia claims attempt made to blow up bridge linking Georgia, Armenia

TBILISI Aug 22

Unidentified persons have attempted to blow up a railway bridge
linking Georgia and Armenia in Georgia’s Marneuli district, local
authorities reported.

A bomb, presumably an anti-tank mine, planted underneath a bridge
support, went off at dawn, but did not seriously damage the bridge,
Kvemo Kartli District Governor David Kirkitadze told journalists on
Friday.

The incident is under investigation, the governor said.
