β€˜Letters to the citizens of Georgia’: the newspapers delivered by the mothers of the jailed The mothers of Georgians arrested during the protests have been travelling across the country to share letters from their imprisoned children.

I spent the whole summer traveling across Georgia with families of jailed protesters, delivering newspapers with prisoners’ letters to bazaars and stations. We visited over 20 locations. I've put together a photo story from those trips.

After 5 months, I’m back on this platform. Covering the Georgian protests has been a tough journey for me and my colleagues. As Oct 4 local elections and a major anti-gov rally approach, I’ll post more often. Your support during this time means a lot.
