A reporter for Interpressnews said there are houses without roof in six villages Kveda Chkhorotsku, Lesichine, Akhuti, Nakiani, Kirtskhi and Zumi; totalling about 40 private houses in all.
According to local authorities in Zugdidi, the wind tore off the roofs of seven residential houses and several other buildings in Odishi, Oktomberi and Rukhi, a place where refugees are living.
The high winds also damaged the roofs of several kindergartens and the roof of the village administration in Ckhoria.
