Bulgaria: Protests in Bulgaria, Day 51: Procession and Main Crossroads Blocked in Sofia

Another night of protests in Sofia and several other major cities in the country. There was another procession in the capital, and the three main crossroads remained blocked. The 51st day of anti-government protests in Sofia passed without tension. Once again, the dissidents gathered around the tent camp on Independence Square and in front of the presidency.

At around 9 pm, the protesters marched in their usual march along the yellow cobblestones to the other tent camp, Eagle Bridge. There were no unforeseen closures of boulevards and crossroads. There are three permanent blockades in the center of the capital - in front of the Council of Ministers, at Sofia University and at Orlov Most.

And while they played volleyball on Orlov Most, others protested against the closure of key crossroads on Sitnyakovo Blvd. The assembly point was again at the Romanian embassy, ​​around 8 p.m.
