Recurrent Attempt to Tense Situation in Samtskhe-JavakhetiaOctober 12, 2005 - 19:29 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - As PanARMENIAN.Net came to know from A-info agency, on October 12 night in the town of Akhalkalaki of the Samtskhe-Javakheti region of Georgia unknown persons stuck leaflets signed by some "Akhaltsikhe Liberation Brigade" to the walls of buildings. The leaflets tell the Armenian population "to immediately abandon the region and go to Armenia, Russia or America." "Otherwise you will be subjected to genocide like your ancestors in 1915", the leaflets say. The Council of the Armenian organizations of Samtskhe-Javakhetia and the majority of the Akhaltsikhe residents rated it as a recurrent attempt to provoke the Armenian population of the region, since tension of the situation is not profitable either for the Armenian or Georgian party. Top stories Authorities said a total of 192 Azerbaijani troops were killed and 511 were wounded during Azerbaijan’s offensive.
