The Killers Issue Apology for Involving Russian Fan in Georgia Performance
American band The Killers has apologized for bringing a Russian drummer on stage during a show in Georgia and referring to the audience as "brothers and sisters," which led to boos from the crowd. The band clarified that it was not their intention to offend anyone and explained that they have a tradition of inviting people to play the drums. Georgian public opinion is largely pro-Ukrainian, and tensions between Georgia and Russia have been heightened due to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
