REFILE - CORRECTING BYLINE Fire engulfs the woods near Gori, some 80km (50 miles) from Tbilisi, August 10, 2008. Russian troops took most of the capital of the separatist Georgian region of South Ossetia on Sunday after a three-day battle but the United States condemned Moscow's "dangerous and disproportionate" action. Although artillery positions have been spotted nearby, residents are not sure how the fire started. REUTERS/Gleb Garanich (GEORGIA)
