Journalist and cameraman attacked by masked people in Georgia
A TV journalist and cameraman were attacked by masked men while covering pro-EU protests in Georgia.
Reporter Maka Chikhladze of pro-opposition TV Pirveli was violently thrown to the ground, while cameraman Giorgi Shetsiruli was kicked in the head on a street in the capital, Tbilisi.
They were covering the 10th night of mass pro-EU protests that took place in several cities. The protests are in response to Georgia’s increasingly authoritarian government suspending its EU accession process.
