As they say at the company, the fault was supposed to be repaired as early as until midday of September 18, however, the communication line is still out of order. As a result, South Ossetian residents have no opportunity to call up Russia, Georgia and other countries, neither they can use Internet, which is provided by Georgia Online Company (Georgia).
