    Georgia says it halts army mutiny to disrupt NATO

    TBILISI, Georgia – Georgia said hundreds of rebellious soldiers surrendered Tuesday after a brief mutiny, but officials backed away from initial claims that Russia supported the uprising as part of a coup plot.

    The Interior Ministry at first said it had uncovered a Russian-supported plan to overthrow President Mikhail Saakashvili's government. But Georgian authorities later stepped back from both of those allegations, saying the mutiny was aimed mainly at disrupting NATO exercises, and leaving out mention of Russian support.

    Details of what officials described as a daylong standoff at a tank battalion headquarters near the capital were shrouded in uncertainty. The reported mutiny deepened roiling political tension in a nation at the heart of persistent discord between Moscow and the West.
