Tbilisi has been overwhelmed by a wave of protests against the AD restrictions in force in Georgia. Particularly strict bans apply in large cities.

The protests began after January 22, when the country's Deputy Prime Minister Maya Tskitishvili announced that although some of the bans on Georgia will be lifted from February 1, all existing restrictions in Tbilisi, Rustavi and Kutaisi will remain until March 1. This caused great dissatisfaction among the population, because the most important problem for residents of large cities is the termination of public transport.

Since then, protests have been held every day in Tbilisi, demanding that the authorities lift the current restrictions. However, as stated in the government, the coordinating council will review its decision only if the epidemiological indicator is reduced to 4% and will remain for 7 days. At the moment, this figure is 6%.
