Update on Peace Corps in Georgia
From the blog B & C Go to Georgia
As Brenden’s note on Facebook said, things seem to be getting worse rather than better. Gori, where Brenden and I lived last summer, was hit by seven more bombs today (there were six yesterday), and the neighborhood of Kombinati (our neighborhood) was particularly hard hit. The bridge between Kombinati and the rest of the Gori is apparently damaged, so you the main east-west highway is closed down (the main east-west highway doesn’t actually go through Gori, but since the bridge on the main highway has been uncrossable due to flood damage for several months now, that’s the only way across). Georgia’s main port city, Poti, and several other towns were also hit last night and this morning. Also, as some of you have seen in news reports, Tbilisi is, obviously, a potential target.
