Two Georgian journalistsโ€”Mariam Kuprava of Tabula and Mariam Dzidzaria of Netgazetiโ€”face up to 15 days in jail for allegedly โ€œblocking the road.โ€ At the time, they were standing on the street reporting on the protests.

What a powerful mural at Ilia State University in Tbilisi: Ilia Chavchavadzeโ€”19th-century writer, statesman, and one of the architects of modern Georgian political identityโ€”walking toward a door painted as the EU flag.

One EU star is missing; Ilia holds one bearing the Georgian flag. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ

Georgiaโ€™s democratic opposition parties have formed an alliance, agreeing on a joint strategy to defeat the autocratic regime and restore the countryโ€™s Euro-Atlantic course.

They say they will fight โ€œuntil political prisoners are freed and free, fair elections are secured.โ€

Day 459 of daily, uninterrupted, nationwide protests in Georgia.

Faces are blurred, as always, as more and more protesters are jailed for peacefully standing on the sidewalk.

The weather in Georgia was so bad today that most neighborhoods were left without electricity, heating, or water. Yet a large crowd turned out for the weekly march in Tbilisi.

Georgians are always protesting. Beyond the daily evening rallies in 8+ cities โ€” now on day 457 โ€” other demonstrations continue across the country, like this silent protest at a metro station.

โ€œFreedom to prisoners of conscience,โ€ the sign reads.

Once again, jail time in Georgia over "verbally insulting a public official" in a Facebook comment.

Politician Lasha Chkhartishvili has been sentenced to 5 days of administrative detention for allegedly insulting judge Davit Makaradze.

The Georgian national anthem echoes in front of Parliament.

Day 455 of daily, uninterrupted protests.

105 years ago today, Soviet Russia invaded and occupied Georgia.

Today, 20% of the country remains under Russian occupation. The rest is ruled by a Russia-aligned, illegitimate regime.

Georgians are marching today to mark the day of the Soviet occupation of Georgia in 1921, when the Red Army invaded and ended the countryโ€™s short-lived independence.

20% of Georgia is still occupied by Russia.

The UK government has sanctioned Georgian TV channels Imedi and PosTV under its Russia sanctions regime.

Hunnewell Partners โ€” the UK-registered firm founded by Irakli Rukhadze โ€” sold Imedi just two weeks ago.

This picture went viral in Georgia of a building perched precariously on the edge of a massive excavation pit, and quickly turned into a meme.

Scenes like this are common in Tbilisi, with controversial construction permits issued under GD's Mayor Kakha Kaladze.

โ€œWe wonโ€™t stop until we prevail.โ€

Students are marching in Tbilisi, Georgia, demanding university autonomy and protesting Georgian Dreamโ€™s unconstitutional interference in how many students state universities can admit and which academic fields they are allowed to teach.

Students continue to protest daily in Georgia. This is now in front of Ilia State University โ€” the only state university openly critical of the Georgian Dream regime โ€” which is facing effective dismantling after being stripped down to just two remaining academic fields.

Three Georgian women face criminal prosecution โ€” and up to 1 year in prison โ€” for standing peacefully on the sidewalk during protests.

They had previously been punished for standing on the roadway. The court considers this a repeat violation under the same provision.
