Current situation around parliament. The first session has started, which due to the ongoing appeal process is considered illegitimate, meaning that Georgia is entering a constitutional crisis. Air raid sirens with a speech are being played at intervals. No sign that protestors will be leaving soon.

People are now getting some rest and aim to keep the road blocked until the morning, when convoys are expected to join from other regions in Georgia. Police intervention in the early morning is possible, but would be likely to increase turnout tomorrow.

#GeorgiaProtests #TbilisiProtests

An overnight protest is ongoing by Tbilisi parliament with the aim of preventing the new parliament from forming tomorrow. Police attempted to prevent an opposition convoy to reach parliament, but a few cars made it through and tents have been set up.

Tents have been set up and some initial makeshift barricades, the protest remains peaceful and there hasn't been any police intervention yet. There is music, hot drinks being handed out, and even bio toilets available. Will see whether the protest continues past 24 hours.

A 24 hour encampment started this evening in Tbilisi, blocking a main road connecting Vake and Mtatsminda districts. caucasus.liveuamap.com/en/2024/17-n...

The protest is located at Taras Shevchenko Garden and Tbilisi State University. Lectures have been cancelled for tomorrow.
