1)The 1907 Tiflis bank robbery, also known as the Yerevan Square expropriation, was an armed
robbery on 26 June 1907. in the city of Tiflis in the Tiflis Governorate  in the Caucasus Viceroyalty of
the Russian Empire (now Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi). A bank cash shipment was stolen by Bolsheviks to
fund their revolutionary activities. The robbers attacked a bank stagecoach and surrounding police and
military using bombs and guns while the stagecoach was transporting money through Yerevan Square
(now Freedom Square) between the post office and the Tiflis branch of the State Bank of the Russian
Empire. The attack killed forty people and injured fifty others, according to official archive documents.
The robbers escaped with 341,000 rubles (equivalent to around US 3.86 million in 2017).

2) The Algeti Wolves  was a paramilitary organization in Georgia who claimed responsibility for a series
of small-scale terrorist attacks against Russian diplomats and military in Georgia in 1995. The name of
the group comes from the Algeti river gorge in south-central Georgia, a place of Georgian resistance
to Iranian invasion in the 17th century.

3)Although Armenia, Chechnya, Estonia, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan have
long had criminals and bandits, during the disorder of the Russian Revolution of 1917, armed gangs
proliferated until they became a very significant factor which controlled society. The criminal culture
with its own slang, culture and laws became known as Vorovskoy Mir (Russian: воровской мир) or
"Criminal/Thieves World".

4)Three suspected militants and a special forces soldier have been killed in a siege on an apartment
in the Georgian capital Tbilisi in 2017.

Explosions and gunfire rocked a block of flats in the Isani district during the 20-hour stand-off.
One of the alleged militants was arrested and four soldiers were wounded, officials said.

The suspects were not thought to be Georgian nationals.

Officials believed them to be members of a "terrorist group" and were working to identify.

The security service said they had refused to surrender and were firing and lobbing grenades from inside.
