As Georgia celebrated its Independence Day on May 26, protesters against the Foreign Agents Law marched from Tbilisi’s Kostava Street to Vake Park, repeating the route of the first-ever Independence Day anniversary march in Georgia on May 26, 1919, one year after the country declared independence in 1918.
Civil.ge‘s Guram Muradov captured memorable moments from the march.
