Original Note:
An independent fact-finding mission commissioned by the EU Council blamed Georgia's attack on the night of 7-8 August as the immediate cause of the war. https://web.archive.org/web/20091007030130/http://www.ceiig.ch/pdf/IIFFMCG_Volume_I.pdf The report has been criticized for failing to sufficiently account for S. Ossetian attacks and Russian military presence.
