Ekaterina Biazrova, Head of the Press Service of the “State Security Committee” of the occupied “South Ossetia”, has reported that one of their drones was shot down by the Georgians near the so-called border, - Sputnik reports.

At about 10:00 am, shots were fired at the drone from Georgia's Kobi settlement without warning. As a result, the drone crashed near the border between South Ossetia and Georgia," Biazrova said, adding that the Security Committee has already informed the EUMM about the incident.
