This article, the latest, says that Russians are not allowing access to conflict areas by western journalists. It appears ethnic cleansing is much worse in the Georgian villages of South Ossetia than the other way around:

And here is an article that says that the total number of dead in the Georgian attack seems to be around 40. This article also points out that Russians are not allowing journalists to examine Georgian villages in South Ossetia, and from what journalists can see, those villages sustained heavy damage. It looks to me like ethnic cleansing of Georgians by Ossetians. Which is exactly what happened in Abkhazia a dozen years ago, when the Abkhazians kicked out ethnic Georgians with Russian help. At the time the Georgians were the majority in Abkhazia. None are left there now.
