The Georgian military has shot down a Russian reconnaissance drone that was flying over Georgian territory, Georgia's government says.
The drone was downed near the town of Gori, south of the de facto border with breakaway South Ossetia, the interior ministry says.
Russia made no comment on the claim, and Georgia provided no evidence.
Russia recognised the independence of South Ossetia after a short war broke out over the territory last month.
