We present a set of photographs from the war in South Osetia made by Arkady Babchenko, one of the editors of Russian war veterans Almanac ”Art of War” (http://www.navoine.ru/). Arkady went with Russian troops on the route Vladikavkaz – Tshinval - Zemo Nikozi – Gori and participated as journalist in the battle for Georgian village Zemo Nikozi. Photographs were prepared and placed in the Internet by Chief Editor of the Almanac Ilya Plekhanov.

Images of Tshinval (South Osetia) after attack of the Georgian Army.

Great pics

Lots of good close-ups of Warsaw-pact military equipment.

NATO-made equipment is mostly destroyed

or captured by Osetis

Owners of the NATO-made equipment - Georgian military - are all dead now.

WARNING!
This is neither war-gaming nor computer simulation.
This is WAR FOR REAL.
Unfortunately, you won't smell a stink of rotting, burnt bodies.
Why unfortunate?
Because that stink is very sobering.
