Holding banners that read "You are not welcome," and "Russia is a terrorist state," hundreds gathered at the main airport in Tbilisi, Georgia on Friday to protest the return of direct flights from Russia.

The move comes after Moscow lifted a flight ban last week in a significant warming of ties with Georgia, with which it has had no formal diplomatic relations since Russia defeated its southern neighbour in a short war in 2008.
