Airbnb continues to allow listings in Russian occupied Abkhazia and Tskhinvali

Airbnb will continue to allow listings throughout the two occupied regions of Georgia Abkhazia and South Ossetia, announces the Airbnb.

Earlier this year, Airbnb announced it would remove listings in Abkhazia and South Ossetia, but “today, Airbnb is announcing that we have settled all lawsuits that were brought by hosts and potential hosts and guests who objected to the policy the company recently announced concerning listings in disputed areas.”

Airbnb announced that any profits generated for Airbnb by any Airbnb host activity in the areas of Abkhazia and South Ossetia will be donated to non-profit organisations dedicated to humanitarian aid that serve people in different parts of the world.

Airbnb is a global platform operating in 191 countries and regions and more than 81,000 cities.
