Security forces detained eight protesters in Tbilisi.

Police detained two people on the sidewalk near the Georgian Parliament building, and six more were detained during a march on the 360th day of daily pro-European protests.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," over the previous three days, police detained participants in the daily protest march in Tbilisi. On November 19, according to the Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs, 13 people were detained for failing to comply with security forces' demands and insulting police officers. On November 20, police detained several more activists, including sports journalist and lawyer Mikheil Zakareshvili. On November 21, the 359th day of protests, at least four people were detained.

Today, as in previous days, security forces formed a human chain outside the Georgian Parliament, preventing protesters from entering Rustaveli Avenue. On the 360th day of continuous protests, citizens gathered outside the parliament building with unchanged demands: calling new parliamentary elections and releasing those detained during the protests, InterPressNews reports.

The protesters staged a performance. They formed a human chain and brought sound toys with them. They expressed solidarity with Vano Skhirtladze, who was sentenced today to eight days of administrative arrest. Two days ago, he walked along Rustaveli Avenue with a similar toy, after which he was detained. "The authorities are afraid of toys," "the authorities are afraid of protests," "the police are afraid of squeaky toys," say protesters.

Lida Tsomaia and Sofo Markozia were detained on Rustaveli Avenue. The latter was detained for failing to comply with police orders, the agency reports.

The protesters then headed from Freedom Square to Ingorokva Street, but were met by a police cordon and forced to turn back. Police detained several protesters near Ingorokva Street.

Sopho Markozia was detained while standing on the sidewalk waving a flag. Lida Tsomaia was also detained on the sidewalk. Mariam Mekantsishvili, David Giunashvili, Giorgi Savaneli, Otar Iremadze, Luka Chokhonelidze, and Tsotne Mirtsulava were detained during the march, Pablika reports.

Security forces violently dispersed the protests, using tear gas and water cannons, and detained protesters. Over a thousand people were subjected to administrative prosecution during the protests. The "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a report "The Main Points of the Persecution of Protest Participants in Georgia".
