Mass protests continue as Georgia passes 'foreign influence' bill

Protesters are detained by police officers in Tbilisi, Georgia, as thousands rally outside the parliament against the adoption of a controversial Kremlin-style "foreign influence" law.

Tbilisi has seen three straight nights of mass rallies over the bill that mirrors repressive laws in Russia which have been slammed by the European Union and the United States.
