Yesterday, several thousand opposition and civic activists protest on Rustaveli avenue, in front of the Parliament building, protesting the presence of the Russian Duma delegation in the Parliament building. The confrontation started when protesters tried to push through the police cordon. Police used water cannons, tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the demonstrators. Dozens of civilians and police officers have been injured.
