Nobody was killed and only one man sustained minor injuries in the three blasts in Zugdidi, a town located on the de facto border with Georgia's breakaway region of Abkhazia.
This demarcation encompasses even a portion of Georgia's Zugdidi district, as well as the Inguri hydroelectric power plant.
But they remain in at least half of the country - including the central towns of Gori and Khashuri, the western cities of Senaki and Zugdidi, and the Black Sea port of Poti.
