Anti-war protestors branded Russia a “terrorist state” as they clashed with police in Georgia after flights resumed today.

The protestors descended en masse to Tbilisi Airport at around 13.20pm local time to meet Azimuth Airlines flight A4851 after it arrived from Moscow.

The flight is the first tourist plane to touch down in Georgia from Russia in four years.
