Contrary to recent irresponsible media reports, no mining activities have been observed along the Abkhazian Administrative Boundary Line (nor that of South Ossetia) by the EU Monitoring Mission.
In fact, EUMM was asked to relay information about a de-mining operation to relevant Georgian authorities. In addition, EUMM dispatched a patrol to the site near Otobaia to monitor the activity. On the spot the EUMM patrol facilitated the exchange of information between the sides.
