We are less than two hours away from the opposition protest, which this time has warned that it will be a different rally.

The organizers themselves have taken care to keep the scenario a secret. The only thing that is known is that the supporters of the opposition will first gather in "Skënderbej" square and at the headquarters of the DP, as they will then march towards the Prime Minister's Office. There will be no speeches, as the crowd is expected to move and some roads will be blocked, but there is no official announcement from the PD itself.

The police themselves reacted yesterday afternoon, where they announced that the traffic will be blocked on Dëshmorët e Kombit Boulevard and then on several road axes, which are: Cafe "Europa" - Segment "Unknown Soldier" up to the 9th floor; School "1 Maji" - the intersection of the ATSH bridge to the Elbasani road; Crossing of the Artistic High School to the Faculty of Foreign Languages; "Skenderbej" Square, Tirana Municipality and Palace of Culture; Crossroads of the University Book; The intersection of December 21 to the "Sabaudin Gabrani" school; Crossroads in the former Block area, "Ibrahim Rugova" street and "Ismail Qemali" street; "Black Bird" roundabout; Crossing at the former train station; Taiwan Bridge Crossing; The intersection of Kavaja street with the entrance to "Skënderbej" square; Crossing of the bridge of the former hotel "Dajti"; Crossing of the 9-storey building with Barricade Street; "Dritan Hoxha" street, in front of the place called "Kupola"; Crossing the palace with arrows.

The crowd has warned that it will move and most likely many institutions, such as the Assembly, the City Hall or the ministries may fall prey to attacks. According to the sources, the head of the police has ordered that the officers be careful in order to avoid unnecessary provocations.

Meanwhile, the streets of Tirana are choked with traffic. There was heavy traffic everywhere, apparently because the citizens are trying to close their jobs before the start of the protest. / Pamphlet
