The Ambassador of Georgia to Israel, Lasha Zhvania, stated that 2 Georgian Jews have died in Israel, while information about other citizens of Georgia is not available.
“The Israeli army has not yet taken control of all the settlements where the terrorists have entered, so it is still difficult to get information. Not all of the dead have been identified yet. So it is not known exactly who is kidnapped and who is dead. Until this moment, no information has been received about the citizens of Georgia. There is no information about the injured or the missing. We hope that this will end like this, that no citizen of Georgia will be injured or kidnapped. No such confirmed information has been received for 2 days.
As of now, two Georgian Jews have died. This is also part of us – Buzudashvili, a police officer who heroically fulfilled his duty, and another young man, Avi Abraham Kubelashvili, who died here during the clashes. We share this terrible tragedy and pain of our brothers and sisters, and we are with them in this time of distress and war,” Lasha Zhvania said.
