Russia has reportedly been completing the transfer of military equipment from one of its two Soviet-era bases in Georgia to Russian troops stationed in Armenia.
Russian news agencies said a convoy of 13 military trucks and armoured vehicles left the Russian base in Akhalkalaki, southern Georgia, early in the morning and was expected to cross the Armenian border in the afternoon.
Russian military officials were quoted as saying that it is the 12th and last batch of military hardware and other equipment sent to Armenia since the start of a gradual Russian pullout from Georgia last May.
