А это описание видео на ангийском:
Kazbek Basayev shot the Russia-Georgia conflict from the South Ossetia side, reaching its capital Tskhinvali with the first wave of Russian troops.
His pictures show the human casualties of war – the dead and
injured, shocked and displaced survivors in devastated streets – and
they provided the first coverage of burning Georgian villages in
territory taken under Russian/Ossetian control.
The judges
praised the human quality of Kazbek’s camerawork and his ability to
tell a complete story through the pictures he shot. One said: “He was
dealing with a population under stress, a foreign power, tanks, and
burning buildings but in the middle of all that he managed to convey
the human face of conflict with a series of thoughtful and beautifully
composed shots.”
