The Public Defender of Georgia expresses deep sorrow over the death of five minors in a fire in the village of Saberio in the occupied Gali district and extends condolences to the families and loved ones of the deceased children.

This information was shared by the office of the Public Defender.

As stated in the announcement, this tragic incident once again highlights the serious challenges in protecting the rights of the population living in Georgia's occupied territories, especially vulnerable and defenseless groups.

"Unfortunately, under the conditions of occupation, the lives and health of many citizens of Georgia, including children, are at risk every day.
