1992-93 ETHNIC CLEANSING OF GEORGIANS IN APKHAZETI,GEORGIA The Ethnic Cleansing of Georgians in Apkhazeti, forced mass expulsion of thousands of ethnic Georgians living in Apkhazeti (de jure Autonomous Republic of Georgia) during the Georgian-Apsua conflict of 1991-1993 and 1998. Between 10,000 to 30,000 Georgians were killed by the Apsua separatists, foreign mercenaries, and, allegedly, by Russian Federation forces. Some ethnic Greeks, Estonians, Russians and moderate Apkhaz were also killed. The ethnic cleansing and massacres of Georgians has been officially recognized by the OSCE convention in 1994 and again in 1996 during the Budapest summit and condemned the "perpetrators of war crimes committed during the conflict." On July 8, 2004 prosecutors at the Hague-based UN International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) made the almost unprecedented decision to launch an investigation about genocide and crimes against humanity in Abkhazia. The ICTY was provided with the documents selected from the 300 volumes of evidence about the genocide of Georgians in Abkhazia. These materials were collected by the Georgian Prosecutors' Office beginning in 1993 and allegedly contain horrific accounts of atrocities committed by the Abkhaz fighters and mercenaries from Russia. The reports included a detailed description of how the separatists played soccer with the heads of dead Georgians on the field after the executions in Gagra.
