Georgia pride march cancelled after LGBT office ransacked and rainbow flags destroyed
LGBT campaigners in Georgia have called off a pride march after violent groups opposed to the event stormed and ransacked their office in the capital Tbilisi.
Activists launched five days of LGBT Pride celebrations last Thursday and had planned a March for Dignity on Monday in central Tbilisi, shrugging off criticism from the church and conservatives who said the event had no place in Georgia.
However, the march plan was disrupted by counter-protesters before it could begin.
Video footage posted by LGBT activists showed men scaling their building to reach their balcony, where they tore down rainbow flags and were seen entering the office of Tbilisi Pride.
