At least 21 police officers and six demonstrators were injured in overnight clashes in Tbilisi after protesters attempted to enter Georgia’s presidential palace during a rally over disputed local elections.
According to authorities, the injuries occurred during a confrontation between police and protesters near the presidential palace late at night.
Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze said the incident was an attempt to destabilise the country, adding that security forces prevented demonstrators from entering the palace grounds. He stated that anyone violating the law would face legal consequences.
The protest followed opposition calls to reject the results of the 4 October municipal elections, which several opposition parties said were not legitimate. Organisers, including opera singer Paata Burchuladze, told the crowd in Freedom Square that they no longer recognised the government’s authority.
During the rally, United National Movement representative Murtaz Zodelava reportedly urged participants to move toward the presidential palace. Protesters advanced toward the building, removing barriers and confronting police.
Security forces responded with tear gas and water cannons, while protesters threw stones and bottles. Clashes also occurred at Orbeliani Square as police reinforced security in central Tbilisi.
Authorities said order was later restored, though smaller demonstrations continued in parts of the city.
