GEORGIA AND RUSSIA TRADE ALLEGATIONS OVER MISSILE

The nation of Georgia today accused Russia of firing a missile into its national territory. The missile landed in a farm, but did not explode. Georgian officials say the Russian aircraft that allegedly fired the missile violated Georgian airspace. Russia denies the accusation, instead suggesting that Georgia fired a missile at itself to illicit a regional outcry against Russia. Tensions have been high for some time between the former Soviet satellite state and Russia, which continues to wield considerable influence in the region.
