At the same time, at the beginning of March, Georgian security forces blocked the Gudzhavarsk gorge of the Borjomi region. They presented an ultimatum to the Ossetian population of the gorge’s 9 villages that if they did not leave the area within 24 hours, the Georgian army would deal with them by force.
It is known that in a day, the 9 Ossetian villages were completely de-ethnized, and the frightened population through mountain passes attempted to move to Armenia.
Thousands of refugees from the Borjomi region were assisted and protected by the Armenians of Samtskhe-Javakhk who accompanied the exhausted and frightened Ossetian population to the Armenian-Georgian border, not allowing marauders to rob and maim them. In the early 90s. more than 3 thousand Ossetians migrated to Vladikavkaz via Yerevan.”
