Protests in Tbilisi continued amid persecution of activists.

On December 10, parliament adopted amendments to the Law on Assemblies and Manifestations and the Code of Administrative Offenses, prepared by the Georgian Dream party, banning spontaneous protests near government buildings. The restrictions on spontaneous protests proposed by the ruling party are contradictory to the Constitution of Georgia and equate public gatherings without police approval to a misdemeanor, human rights activists noted. On December 11, the law was officially published and entered into force after midnight. The bill requires approval from the Ministry of Internal Affairs for assemblies "in places where people move," specifically near government buildings and courthouses. Police will also be able to demand that applicants relocate the demonstration, change its time, or change its method. The amendments will effectively ban protests on Rustaveli Avenue near the parliament building, where protests are held daily. For the second year, Georgia has seen daily protests demanding new parliamentary elections and the release of all those detained for participating in demonstrations. Demonstrators have blocked traffic on Rustaveli Avenue for 343 consecutive days. Since November 6, security forces have prevented activists from blocking traffic, setting up cordons along the roadway. Protesters have been detained for attempting to enter the road. However, on the anniversary of the protests and on several other days since, protesters have marched along the roadway. Specifically, on December 6, daily protesters demanded an international investigation into the use of "kamit" to disperse demonstrators in November-December 2024. They announced weekly marches until their demand is met.

Protesters in Georgia have been demanding new parliamentary elections and the release of political prisoners since November 28, 2024. Security forces have violently dispersed the protests, using tear gas and water cannons, and detained protesters. Over the course of the protests, more than 1,000 people have been subjected to administrative prosecution. The "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a report "The Main Thing About the Persecution of Protest Participants in Georgia".
