An incident occurred during the protest held this Monday near the Albanian Parliament, where a young man showed health problems after the police sprayed him in the face.
Due to his condition, an ambulance arrived at the scene, and the medical team provided him with first aid.
The young man was then transported to the hospital to receive specialized medical treatment.
The incident occurred at a time when the protest in front of Parliament was accompanied by tensions and clashes between protesters and police forces, who used tear gas to disperse the crowd and keep the situation under control.
The protest held this Monday in front of the Parliament was accompanied by moments of tension, as protesters attempted to approach the Parliament building and break through the police cordon.
From the start of the rally, citizens had brought tomatoes, eggs, and peppers with them, which would be used to throw at ministers and MPs upon their arrival at the Assembly.
The situation became tense when a group of protesters moved into the streets surrounding Parliament in an attempt to break through the security perimeter set up by the State Police. The officers blocked their approach, preventing them from breaking the police cordon.
During the clashes, eggs were thrown at police forces, while officers used tear gas at several points to disperse the protesters and keep the situation under control.
The use of eggs against officials is not a new development. Even in the last parliamentary session, protesters threw eggs at vehicles transporting MPs and ministers at the entrance to the Parliament building.
The protest is taking place in parallel with the last plenary session of this parliamentary session, while numerous police forces continue to surround the area around Parliament.
Over 1,500 police forces are engaged in today's protest, having formed cordons throughout the area surrounding Parliament.
Five people have been arrested so far following clashes between protesters and police near the Namazgja Mosque. Among those arrested is one of the members of the protest organizing group, Arben Kola.
Kola is grabbed by 4 police officers who are holding him by the arms and legs, while Kola still has the megaphone in his hand.
Their escort came after the protesters, due to the blockade set up by the State Police in front of the Parliament, changed the route of the rally, marching initially on "Dëshmorët e Kombit" Boulevard and then towards the Grand Ring Road.
Protesters are positioned near the intersection of Elbasan Street, where the first police escorts took place during today's protest.
So far, the reasons for the escorting of the two people have not been made known, and there has not yet been an official reaction from the State Police regarding this action.
Meanwhile, the protest continues in the area, while numerous police forces are engaged in managing the situation. Over 1,500 police forces are engaged in today's protest, who have formed cordons throughout the area around Parliament.
Citizens have gathered in front of the Parliament and at other strategic points around the Assembly, while the Police have set up a reinforced security perimeter with FNSH, "Eagles" and water tankers.
The Albanian Parliament meets this Monday in the last plenary session of this parliamentary session, which is expected to start at 10:00.
In parallel with its development, citizens have gathered in the 58th consecutive protest in front of the Parliament building, while security measures have been significantly increased.
The protesters will not only stand in front of the Parliament, but have organized themselves at several strategic points in the capital. They are expected to position themselves near the Parliament, the Ministry of Interior and on Elbasani Street, awaiting the arrival of ministers and MPs.
To ensure the smooth running of the protest and the plenary session, the State Police has deployed a large number of officers on the ground. The security perimeter has been reinforced with a wide police fence, consisting of two lines of "Eagle" forces and one line of the National Security Force (FNSH), while water tankers have also been placed on standby for intervention in case of escalation of the situation.
According to reports from the field, in some cases officers have attempted to remove protesters from the positions where they were located, while so far the situation appears calm and no incidents have been recorded.
Meanwhile, inside the Assembly hall, MPs are expected to review the issues on the agenda, which include changes to the composition of parliamentary committees, as well as other parliamentary procedures.
Attention remains focused on the development of the protest outside Parliament and the arrival of MPs and government members, while it remains to be seen whether the rally will take place without incidents until the end of the plenary session.
The protest takes place at a time when the Parliament is expected to conclude its session, while the organizers have warned of the continuation of civic action and calls against the political class.
This Monday, July 27, the last plenary session of the Parliament will be held, which is expected to be accompanied by another civic protest, called in front of the Parliament building.
Organizers have called on citizens to gather at 8:00 a.m. as a sign of dissatisfaction with the Assembly and the political class. According to them, the protest aims to raise its voice against an institution that, as the organizers claim, has become disconnected from the concerns and interests of citizens.
Monday's rally is a continuation of the civic revolt that has been going on for 58 days, and it is expected that, just like the July 23 protest, security measures will be increased.
The area around Parliament is expected to be surrounded by numerous police forces, in order to guarantee order and security during the protest.
The protest takes place at a time when the Parliament is expected to conclude its session, while the organizers have warned of the continuation of civic action and calls against the political class.
Meanwhile, citizens will return this afternoon to the daily protest against the government, which has now entered its 58th day.
The rally begins at "Skënderbej" Square and then the march begins in front of the Prime Minister's Office building, where protesters are expected to repeat their demands for the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama, political changes, and the guarantee of free and fair elections.
Even in previous days, protesters have marched on the main streets of Tirana, stopping in front of state institutions, including Parliament, where they have expressed their dissatisfaction with the political class.
Organizers have stated that the protests will continue until their demands are met. During the rallies, chants such as: “Resign!”, “Rama resign!”, “Rama in prison, Berisha in prison” and “You do not represent us!” were repeatedly heard.
