US and Italian ambassadors and OSCE Secretary General Helga Maria Schmid have visited the village of Tsitsagiaantkari earlier today near the Russian-controlled Tskhinvali region of Georgia, where they attended the opening ceremony of a drinking water reservoir for locals and met the family of Zaza Gakhekadze, a Georgian citizen who has been illegally sentenced to 12 years in prison by de facto Tskhinvali. 

The Tsitsagiaantkari village has been deprived of drinking water since the Russia-Georgia 2008 war because earlier they received fresh water from villages which are currently under Russian control.
