The Rubble of Georgian Lives

A teddy bear lies amidst rubble in Gori after the recent conflict between Georgia and Russia

GORI, Georgia (Aug. 25, 2008) A teddy bear lies amidst rubble in Gori after the recent conflict between Georgia and Russia. Members of U.S. European Command’s Joint Assessment Team were accompanied by officials from the government of the Republic of Georgia, and toured the embattled city to assess the level of damage, the status of relief efforts, and the return of displaced persons. The Department of Defense deployment is part of a larger United States response to the government of Georgia request for humanitarian assistance. U.S. Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development is coordinating the efforts. (U.S. Navy photo by Lt. Jim Hoeft/Released)
