Groups of young people have been spotted heading toward the parliament along Chavchavadze Avenue, Orda reports. 

They are calling on everyone to participate in the protest, writes Newsgeorgia.

Yesterday, protesters faced a law enforcement crackdown.

43 people were detained in Tbilisi overnight. During the clashes, 32 law enforcement officers sustained injuries. Local journalists, meanwhile, counted about 15 people (or more) who were assaulted by law enforcement.

Many diplomats have signed a letter opposing the country's pivot away from European integration. Some Ministry of Defense employees joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs employees; they supported joining the EU.

The opposition regularly announces new protests, and law enforcement's responses have not stopped their efforts.
