After the previous shameful news concerning Russian government another crime of the past is waiting for its revelation. The Russian-Georgian conflict in 2008 came into the focus of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Haage . It announced the investigation of the possible war crimes against humanity during the conflict. From June till October 2008 pro-Russian separatists and later on Russian troops took the territory of South Ossetia (Tskhinvali Region), part of Georgia. After the conflict Russia announced independence of this territory. During the hostilities 1000 people were killed and all ethnic Georgians lived on this territory were displaced.
