Participants of the march in Tbilisi protested against one-party rule.

The march under the slogan "Georgia against the one-party rule of Ivanishvili" took place in Tbilisi on the 696th day of continuous protests amid the Constitutional Court's consideration of a lawsuit to ban opposition parties.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", a magazine about the civil struggle of Georgian women was presented to activists gathered in Tbilisi in front of the parliament building on October 23, on the 695th day of continuous protests.

A traditional "Saturday march" took place in Tbilisi under the slogan "Georgia against the one-party rule of Ivanishvili" (founder and honorary chairman of the ruling party "Georgian Dream", billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili). Protesters gathered near the "Avlabari" metro station and headed towards Rustaveli Avenue. Citizens, activists, and politicians participated in the march, reports "Interpressnews".

Today marks the 696th day of continuous protests, writes Publika.

According to photos published by the publication, a large number of police guarded administrative buildings.

Activists held placards with hearts and flags of the USA and European countries, with inscriptions "We will not return to the USSR", "Hands off our votes", according to photographs posted on social media by photographer Georgy Mosiashvili (Mo Se).

Hundreds of people again, as they have for almost two years continuously, marched through the city center with flags of Georgia, the European Union, and Ukraine, according to a video published by Jam-News. Among the slogans they chanted were "Peace for Georgia", "Glory to the heroes", "Long live Georgia without Ivanishvili!", according to the video from JamNews.

Participants of the march occupied half of the roadway on the streets in the city center. Among the flags they carried was a large flag of Georgia. Passing cars continuously honked in greeting and support of the march participants.

Protesters in Georgia have been demanding new parliamentary elections and the release of political prisoners since November 28, 2024. Law enforcement conducted harsh dispersals of protests, using tear gas and water cannons, and detained protesters. Thousands of people have faced administrative prosecution during the protests. "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a reference titled "Main points about the persecution of protest participants in Georgia".
