Speaking at a news conference for foreign journalists in Tbilisi on August 12, President Saakashvili said that the Russian air strikes hit the BP-operated oil pipeline in Georgia.
Earlier this morning the Georgian officials have claimed the Russian warplanes dropped three bombs in the area through which the Baku-Supsa pipeline runs. It was also reported that one bomb hit the pipeline without exploding.
BP-Azerbaijan, however, said it was unaware of the attack.
“All our facilities are intact and we have no such information," Reuters quoted a BP official as saying.

This Russian aggression is a travesty against freedom and the rights of free nations to self-determination.
My thoughts are with the Georgian people and I demand the NATO and the UN push the Russians out of Georgian territory immediately.
