Also need to find the original Georgian press coverage...but I don't speak Georgian so that complicates matters. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 00:13, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Wow! Both sources check out in this new enough and long enough articles. ALT0 is probably the better hook since the incident itself isn't much heard-of. No textual issues, but I did polish some of the writing a bit. Great new article. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:10, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
