SUKHUMI. Oct 8 (Interfax-AVN) - Abkhazia has not declared a general mobilization yet, its foreign minister Sergei Shamba told Interfax on Monday.
However, he did not rule out mobilization in reaction to the invasion of Chechen and Georgian rebels into Abkhazia. "We are monitoring the situation, and if reports prove true that rebel reinforcements have transferred to Abkhazia from the Pankisi gorge in Georgia, then evidently a general mobilization will be announced," he said.
According to Shamba's knowledge, "barracks and bases are prepared" for the rebel reinforcements.
