Georgia says it fired at Russian plane this week | International | Reuters
TBILISI (Reuters) - Georgian forces fired at a plane they believed was Russian after it violated the Caucasus republic’s airspace on Wednesday, a senior interior ministry official said.

The incident marks an intensification of a row between the two countries in which Georgia has accused Russian planes of violating its border and of dropping a missile near Tbilisi.

Russia called the Georgian statement a provocation. It has not reported any plane missing, and when asked specifically about the Georgian statement an official denied Russian aircraft had violated Georgian airspace.
