Dzari (Georgian: ძარი, Ossetian; Ossetic: Зар Zar, Russian: Зар) is a settlement at the head of the river Kornisistskali (left tributary of the Eastern Fron) in the Tskhinvali District[2] of South Ossetia, Georgia.[3] It is located 12 kilometers west of Tskhinvali.

According to 1847 data, Dzari was included in the villages of the Kornisi Valley and was inhabited by ethnic Ossetians. Until 1991 it was part of the Tskhinvali region. It has been occupied by Russia since 2008 and de facto controls Republic of South Ossetia.
On May 20, 1992, on the road from the village, the Zar tragedy occurred — during which a column of Ossetian refugees were shot and killed by Georgian militants.
The village is famous for the "Zarskaya bypass road", or "The road of life" from Tskhinvali to Vladikavkaz. A memorial complex to the victims of the war was built on the territory of the village.
