Il a pu avoir accès à toutes les zones qu’il avait demandé à voir, y compris à la région de Tskhinvali et aux districts d’Akhalgori et de Znauri, et il a tenu des consultations franches et ouvertes avec les autorités de facto d’Ossétie du Sud. En raison du conflit d’août 2008, 19 381 personnes ont été déplacées au-delà de la frontière de facto, tandis que, selon les estimations, entre 10 000 et 15 000 personnes ont été déplacées à l’intérieur de la région de Tskhinvali (Ossétie du Sud).

The "buffer zone" after the withdrawal of the Russian troops. Over the period from October 12 till October 23, 2008 representatives of the HRC "Memorial" and the Demos Centre were on a fact-finding mission in Georgia. The goal of the mission was examination and analysis of the humanitarian consequences of the August armed hostilities. The focus of our attention was on the current situation in the former "buffer zone" immediately after the withdrawal of the Russian troops. In the course of their fact-finding mission representatives of the human rights organizations visited the cities of Tbilisi and Gori, 17 villages of the Gori district (Karalet'i, Tqviavi, Ergnet'i, Qits'nisi, Karbi, Meret'i, Koshki, Arb 0, Ditsi, Tirdznisi, Megvrekisi, P'khvenisi, Variani, Shindisi, Qvemo Niqozi, Zemo Niqozi, Zemo Khvit'i), two villages situated in the Kareli district (Goget'I, P'tsa) as well as the Akhalgori (Leningori) district currently under the control of the South Ossetian authorities. The members of the mission especially focused on the issue of current security for the civilian population of the most afflicted regions. The residents of the settlements on the territories of the former "buffer zone", which were exposed to shelling and bombing as well as plundering and arson attacks on private households, were interrogated.
