In Tbilisi, Georgia, clashes erupted as thousands of protesters rallied against the government's actions, throwing eggs at riot police and storming the parliament building. The protesters, many waving EU flags, gathered in the heart of the capital to voice their opposition to the government's controversial stance on EU membership and recent political decisions. The scene turned chaotic as masked individuals confronted the police, with some attempting to break into the parliament. The tensions highlight a growing discontent with the ruling government, as demonstrators demand greater accountability and alignment with European values. This marked a significant escalation in the ongoing protests that have gripped Georgia in recent weeks.
