Iran Press/Europe: The protests, centered on Rustaveli Avenue in the heart of Tbilisi, have become a flashpoint in the nation’s ongoing political crisis.
Demonstrators are calling for immediate reforms, including new parliamentary elections and the release of individuals they allege were unlawfully detained during earlier demonstrations. The mounting tension underscores a deepening rift within Georgian society about its future political trajectory and alignment with European institutions.
Friday night saw a significant police presence in the capital, with law enforcement deploying water cannons to disperse the crowds. Several protesters were detained in the process, further fueling the anger of demonstrators who accuse the government of undermining democratic freedoms.
