The so-called military city of Senaki where there are 621 IDP families living, is the biggest IDP settlement in the Western Georgia. There are 1828 IDPs registered here. On August 27th, “Energo-pro Georgia” stopped providing them with the electricity. The IDPs were punished for not signing the company requests.

The area of the occupied territories of Georgia has increased by two more kilometers. Though our government doesn’t divulge this information, it’s been about two months now the Russian army units occupied the big part of Tvauri settlement in the village Lamisyana, Kaspi region and divided it by bank that hinders the residents to have an access to their homes. The big part of the rural land of Lamisyana happened to fall inside the occupied territory. So, it turns out that the Russian occupants are nearer to Tbilisi, precisely 24 kilometers afar.

About 60 IDP families from Abkhazia have been living in the national center of ophthalmology and neurology in Tbilisi for many years already. In 2007 the company New Hospital within PSP Group purchased the building and started construction of a new medical clinic in it. Consequently, the 39 IDP families are supposed to be evicted from the one part of the building.
