Rumors of a new mobilization in Russia have sparked a surge in border crossings. Over the past week, more than 113,000 Russians have entered Georgia. This follows a pattern of increased movement along the Russia-Georgia border, reminiscent of previous exodus scenes.

The exodus coincides with a rise in financial transactions. Russians are stepping up money transfers to Georgia. There is also a rush for rental properties abroad, as individuals seek to secure alternative living arrangements.
