Day 5 of Georgia protests. Much focus has been on Tbilisi, where 200,000 have been gathering in recent days.
However, this is in Batumi, Georgia’s second largest city. Huge numbers now gathering. Pro-EU, anti-government/anti-Russia protests growing across the country.

There seems to have been much greater use of force and tear gas by Police tonight, but the protesters are refusing to bow down.

Police have trying to drive protestors back with tear gas, but each time they are returning.
Hugely courageous from a people refusing to be silenced.
