Georgia: the violence against reporters covering protests has been met with shocking impunity

More than 70 reporters have been attacked in Georgia — some of them assaulted multiple times — while covering the protests that began three weeks ago. Alarmed, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) condems the police’s systematic, organised violence and urges the European Union (EU) to act against the impunity of Georgia’s law enforcement, which threatens the country’s democracy.
