BEIJING, Aug 9 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush pledged U.S. support for Georgia's territorial integrity and has been updated regularly on the crisis involving Russia in Georgia's breakaway region of South Ossetia, the White House said on Saturday.

"We urge all parties, Georgians, South Ossetians and Russians, to de-escalate the tension and avoid conflict," she said. (Reporting by Matt Spetalnick and Jeremy Pelofsky)
