Background[edit]

The conflict between Abkhazia and Georgia had been ongoing for several years, characterized by territorial disputes and ethnic tensions. Eshera, a strategically located town, was one of the flashpoints in the conflict.

The Assault[edit]

In a well-coordinated operation, Abkhazian forces took advantage of the element of surprise to launch an assault on Eshera. The Georgian troops stationed in the town were caught off guard, leading to a fierce and intense battle. The Abkhazian forces were able to overrun the Georgian defenses, and heavy fighting ensued on the streets of Eshera.[1][2]

Casualties[edit]

The Eshera Assault resulted in a significant loss of life. 18 Georgian soldiers were killed, and an additional 2 were wounded. The Abkhazian forces also suffered casualties, but the exact number remains undisclosed.[1]
