105 families to be resettled after landslides hit western Georgia

About 105 families will be resettled from Georgia’s Guria region in the country’s west after landslides and flood hit its municipalities last week, killing three, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili said on Monday, at the regular Government session. 

 

He claimed the authorities would do “their utmost” to ensure the support of the disaster-affected communities, adding the landslides and heavy rains had “severely damaged” the region’s infrastructure and losses were being calculated. 

 

The PM also said 110 individuals had been accommodated in hotels, and roads had been opened  to traffic and pedestrians. 

 

Two of the three victims of the disaster were minors.
