Story - Before the break-up of the Soviet Union, South Ossetia operated as the South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast, an autonomous region within the Georgian SSR. A military conflict between Georgia and South Ossetia broke out in January 1991 when Georgia sent troops to subdue a South Ossetian separatist movement. The separatists were helped by former Soviet military units, who by now have come under Russian command. Estimates of deaths in this fighting exceeded 2,000 people. During the war several atrocities occurred on both sides. Roughly 100,000 Ossetians fled Georgia and South Ossetia, while 23,000 Georgians left South Ossetia.
After the Sochi agreement in 1992, Tskhinvali was isolated from the Georgian territory around it and Russian, Georgian and South Ossetian peacekeepers were stationed in South Ossetia under the Joint Control Commission's mandate of demilitarization.
The conflict remained frozen until 2003 when Mikheil Saakashvili came to power in Georgia's Rose Revolution, which dispossessed president Eduard Shevardnadze. In the years that followed, Saakashvili's government pushed a program to strengthen failing state institutions, including security and military, created "passably democratic institutions" and implemented what many have viewed as a pro-US foreign policy. One of Saakashvili's main goals have been Georgian NATO membership, which Russia opposes. This has been one of the main problems in Georgia-Russia relations.
During 2008, both Georgia and Russia accused each other of preparing for war. In April, Russia said that Georgia was massing 1,500 soldiers and police in the upper Kodori Gorge area and planned to invade the breakaway region of Abkhazia. Russia said it was boosting its forces there and in the South Ossetia region as a response.
On April 16th Russia's president Vladimir Putin signed a decree authorising direct official relations between Russian government bodies and the secessionist authorities in Georgia's Abkhazia and South Ossetia. The move further heightened tensions between Russia and Georgia.
On April 20th, a Russian jet shot down a Georgian unmanned spy-plane flying over Abkhazia. After the incident Saakashvili deployed 12,000 Georgian troops to Senaki. Georgian interior ministry officials have shown the BBC video footage, which Georgia said showed Russian troops deploying heavy military hardware in the breakaway region of Abkhazia. According to Georgia, "it proved the Russians were a fighting force, not just peacekeepers." Russia have strongly denied the accusations. Both countries are accusing each other of flying jets over South Ossetia, violating the ceasefire.
After the Georgian bombing of the South Ossetian capital, Tskhinvali in the late evening of August 7, Georgian armed forces began pushing into South Ossetia, supported by their artillery and multiple rocket launcher fire. The next three nights will be Georgian and Russian armed forces fighting into and around South Ossetia to regain control of the territory. Also in the area are mercenaries who look to use this conflict to profit from either side and even fight on the side of the highest bidder. The fighting will be intense, non-stop, and fierce due to both sides being ordered to keep their squads in place until the end.

It was a waste to me and my team in our oppinion. Way too hot, most of our guns when down because of the heat. And most of us we're too hot and tired to play.
