The tanks moved in. In one section along the river, the enclosing tanks cut off all means of escape as the citizens tried to seek cover. They were ?anked on one Side by closed buildings, and on the other by sheer cliffs, dropping to rocks and the swift currents of the River Kura, which was running through the center of the town. This obvious death jump was the only chance of escape. The casualties were reported to exceed 600.
The heroes of the day were two boys and a girl, Who had set up a transmitter to the free world, Which was apparently heard in Turkey, refusing to surrender to the Russian troops. The door of the building was forced open then, and all three were bayoneted and thrown into the street.
The bodies of those killed in the fighting were not returned to the families of the victims. The wounded were ordered to remain in their homes until fully recovered, so that the number of casualties in the city would not become known.
