This is the moment The Killers are booed after bringing a Russian fan on stage in Georgia.

Lead singer Brandon Flowers told the crowd to treat the Russian fan as their “brother”. While there were some cheers in the crowd, many booed and shouted: “No.”

Flowers then says: “I don’t want this to turn ugly.”

Georgia gained independence from Soviet rule in 1991, and, in 2008, Russia invaded Georgia.

Tensions have been heightened following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last year.
