August 31, 2008: More than two hundred refugees from South Ossetia (73 of them are children) continue their stay at Taganrog city environs under close attention and care of the regional governments.
The war against South Ossetia left no one in Taganrog indifferent: the Taganrog Education Council, the Taganrog Association of Parents' Committees, Taganrog schools and tutorial councils provided for all school students and preschoolers everything they will need for going to school. From the first days of their stay in Don Region, the refugees received everything they needed, including TV sets, communication devices, refrigerators and school sets. Baby carriages were purchased for 11 infants.
