Georgian villagers evacuate near the city of Tskhinvali, in the breakaway Georgian province South Ossetia, Friday, Aug. 8, 2008. A sudden military offensive by Georgia, a staunch U.S. ally, reportedly killed hundreds of people in the separatist region and threatened to off a wider war with Russia. The fighting started when Georgia launched an attack to retake a breakaway province.
