Russia says kills two armed men on Georgia border

MOSCOW, Sept 5 (Reuters) Russian border guards killed two armed men today who tried to cross over the border from Georgia, Russia's FSB internal security service told Russian news agencies.

''When there was an attempt to arrest the men there was fierce resistance and they were destroyed,'' the FSB told the news agencies.

Relations between Russia and Georgia have slipped to a low following a spy row last year. Last month Georgia accused Russia of sending a plane to dropped a bomb on its territory. Russia denies the accusation.
