I think I heard somewhere that while Russia has called a halt to the operation, it has also given a green light “targets pockets of resistance” regardless.

Things do seem to be winding down but it might not be instant.

The Georgian President is speaking at a rally in Tiblisi.....he states he will get revenge on the Russians and from his tones he has not finished yet....

Regards the Russians the ceasefire appears to be conditional that the Georgians retreat....they are not and so the Russians continue to bombard Georgian positions
