In Georgia, several people were taken as hostages

In Tbilisi, Georgia, armed men broke into the building of a microfinance organization and took several hostages, as was reported by Sputnik Georgia.

At the moment, the police have managed to persuade the attacker to release two people. However, there are still other hostages in the building on Tsereteli Avenue.

According to eyewitnesses, there are several attackers, and one of them has a grenade. The demands of the attackers and the exact number of hostages are still unknown. The police are expanding the area and mobilizing more police units.

Perhaps, people evacuation will be needed from the house in which the organization is located.

Also, Telegram channel “Segodnia” published the video of one of the terrorists. The video was recorded at the microfinance organization by one of the hostages, probably an employee of the institution. He passed it on to the local media. The video reveals the face of a terrorist from the occupied building on Tsereteli Street.
