I will not leave Sukhumi residents who have suffered immensely in their own town, left to their fate vis-a-vis a brutal, inhuman force, which keeps shelling the residential areas. 40 civilians had been killed and 153 wounded in the last two days. The total number of casualties has reached 2,031 while that of the wounded is 5802. How often have I asked myself – what is happening?

We only aspired to defend the sovereignty of the Republic, protect its vital communications, do away with the hotbeds of sabotage and terror, and we wanted to do all that with consent and participation of our Abkhaz fellow-countrymen.... I am writing this at 3 a.m. The city is being shelled. 1500 houses have already been destroyed. There is no water, no bread, no light and the hope is dwindling. The shelling continues. A few shells have just hit a maternity home, where there were mothers and their infants. I am not saying good-bye, I don’t want to.
