TL;DR

Georgia has won all 3,300 complaints filed against it following the 2008 war with Russia to the European Court of Human Rights over potential violations and crimes committed during the conflict, Justice Minister Rati Bregadze said on Friday.We have also presented solid evidence on the ongoing [postwar] occupation dispute, which includes cases of Georgian citizens killed by occupation forces”, Bregadze said.In a separate case, the Council of Europe’s Committee of Ministers earlier this month “deeply deplored” the “continued absence of response” of Russian authorities to its earlier appeals for the state to implement the ECHR’s 2019 judgement concerning the arrest, detention and collective expulsion of Georgian nationals between 2006-2007.The Committee also adopted an interim resolution on an interstate case concerning various violations in the context of the armed conflict between Georgia and Russia in 2008.It again urged Russian authorities to submit to the Committee of Ministers a plan on the execution of judgement, and to investigate the “serious crimes” committed during the active phase of hostilities as well as during the period of subsequent occupation."
