The team was restored in 2007, in an effort for the Georgian government to regain control over the break-away region of South Ossetia.

After an automatic relegation[9] they were supposed to play in Liga 3 the next year, although unable to cope with long-standing financial difficulties, the club was expelled from the league in January 2020.
