U.S. Navy destroyer McFaul has arrived at the Georgian port of Batumi, well south of the port at Poti where Russian troops remain, eliminating any possible confrontation. The AP, which has a reporter on board, says the McFaul unloaded fifty-five tons of humanitarian aid such as blankets and food, which were ferried ashore for the Georgian refugees the Russian invasion created. The Georgian news media confirms the arrival, but says seventy tons went ashore. AP says the McFaul is the first of five ships to come.
