Protest rally ongoing near Parliament

A protest rally has resumed on Rustaveli Avenue. Citizens have gathered near the legislative body with unchanged demands: the calling of new parliamentary elections and the release of individuals detained during protest actions.

Demonstrators have brought flags and banners with various messages.

“Freedom for the regime’s prisoners,” they chant.

Patrol police units are mobilized in the area surrounding Parliament.

Continuous protests have been taking place near Parliament for over a year now. Participants are protesting the current political situation in the country and the suspension of negotiations on accession to the European Union.
