Protesters gathered in front of state institution buildings, demanding the repeal of the bill, which they claim undermines democracy. They also called for the release of previously arrested demonstrators. Media reports indicate that several hundred people have been detained by police during past protests in Tbilisi.

The ruling party insists that the legislative initiative is designed to protect Georgia's democracy and security. However, Tbilisi's Western partners have expressed concern, with Washington threatening to impose visa restrictions on a number of Georgian officials and their family members.

The protests reflect a significant public backlash against the proposed legislation and highlight ongoing tensions between the Georgian government and opposition groups. (ILKHA)
