Georgia - Georgian officials demanded that Russia explain why a pair of Russian fighter jets violated Georgian airspace and fired a missile that landed near a village north of the capital.
"We have summoned the Russian ambassador and protested the attack against a sovereign country and we do expect a serious explanation and a serious Russian response," said Georgian Foreign Minister Gela Bezhuashvili.
According to the minister, Georgian radar and eyewitnesses recorded the aircraft entering Georgian airspace, dropping a 1,000 kilogram (2,200 pound) precision-guided bomb.
Authorities said the ordnance landed near the village of Tsitelubani, but did not explode and there were no casualties. Video from the site showed wreckage with Russian writing on it.
A senior official in Russia's air force quickly denied the reports.
