  • In this episode of Battle Lines, we speak to The Telegraph's Middle East correspondent, Natalia Vasilyeva, about why the invasion of Rafah is back on the agenda, and what we know about Israel's attack on Iran one week on. Then we catch up with Russia and Caucasus correspondent James Kilner to hear about the mass protests in Georgia and how a shadowy billionaire figure with links to the Kremlin is driving the unrest.

    Ruzzia must leave Georgia and give back Georgia's territory.

      Russia makes for a horrible alliance. Wherever they go they spread corruption and milk all the profits from the citizens. There is no negotiating with terrorists.

    20:34 is Georgia, everything prior is pro-israel.

    why does the title read Georgia when 2/3 of the program is about Israel?

    I’m pretty sure that the USA has a similar law preventing foreign meddling in their politics.

      Not exactly. FARA requires foreign lobbyists to join a registry. The draft in Georgia would also require foreign aid organizations, religious groups, and media to register. It would also require Georgian-run organizations to register, if they receive foreign funding.

    I don’t understand what is taking so long for Israel to get done with its operations in Gaza? They’ve been destroying tunnels and bombing for how long now? How long will it take for them to get rid of Hamas? Where is Hamas at this point that Israel hasn’t found their tunnels yet? I’m an American and I’m on Israel’s side but it’s becoming extreme now. What is the plan?

      It never was about hamas, they have been waiting for this for a loooong time

    Russia will not let Georgia go, strategically too important. This could lead to more bloodshed than 2008. The West failed then, it will happen again.

    There are no "battles" in Georgia, stop trying to create one, Jimmy.

      There are foreign troops in Georgia, but they're not NATO troops.
