Misho Georgiev

Active from: 1894

Misho Georgiev was a revolutionary and hajduk. He was known as IMARO's voivode for Struga. He was born in the village of Vishni, which was then part of the Ottoman Empire. At an early age, he joined the ranks of the hajduks and led a small detachment that carried out numerous activities against the Ottoman authorities. His detachment was known for its indomitable spirit and effective resistance to Turkish rule.

When IMARO emerged in 1894, Misho Georgiev was among the first to join the organisation. He took an active part in the revolutionary struggle of the Bulgarians in Macedonia, carrying out various missions and attacks against the Ottoman authorities and their supporters. As a voivode of the organisation, he organised and led revolutionary activities in the Strumitsa region, becoming a symbol of courage and determination in the struggle for freedom and independence.
