There are now statements from representatives in the breakaway Georgian province of Abkhazia that Russia will be taking over full control of military operations, and the Georgian foreign minister is claiming that they are near to war with Russia.
Again, let me say that much of this* is a direct result of NATO's expansion eastward, in violation of agreements, which has fed Russia's long tradition of xenophobia and paranoia, and hence has led to these actions.
*Though there is an aspect of Russia attempting to create a sphere of influence in the area too.
