This gallery captures the intense atmosphere of a large-scale protest held outside the Georgian parliament building in Tbilisi, Georgia, on Monday, Oct. 28, 2024. The demonstration was called by the President of Georgia in response to contested election results, which are widely seen as tainted by fraud and irregularities. The photographs highlight the diverse crowd, from young children perched on their parents’ shoulders waving Georgian flags to elderly citizens draped in American flags, symbolising a call for democratic values and transparency.
