• Multiple anti-government protests are slated across Tbilisi on April 11.
• The locations and timing for the gatherings on the slated day include the Public Broadcaster Building at 19:00 (local time), outside the Parliament at 20:00, and the Ilia Chavchavadze and Akaki Tsereteli Statue at 21:00.
• These protests mark 135 consecutive days of demonstrations against the ruling Georgian Dream (GD) Government over its alleged anti-democratic polices, including suspending negotiations with the EU until 2028 in November 2024 and the targeting of anti-government demonstrators.

1. The turnout of the slated gatherings is likely to range in the high dozens to low hundreds based on the overwhelming anti-GD sentiment among the population and the participation trends witnessed across various protests. A slightly higher footfall is anticipated at the gathering outside Parliament, given precedent. As per standard security protocols, heightened security measures in the form of riot police deployment and barricade placement in the vicinity of the three locations are liable to be in place.
2. High risk of clashes between the protesters and the riot police persists, given the heightened sensitivities surrounding the issue, coupled with the authorities’ low tolerance for anti-government protests. The police are likely to use forcible measures, such as detention of protesters, should the people resort to tactics such as blocking major roads. Should the demonstrators resort to tactics such as directing pyrotechnics towards police officers, the law enforcement will likely escalate its measures to quell unrest, such as using tear gas and water cannon deployment. Significant travel disruptions are anticipated in the vicinity of the aforementioned locations on April 11.

Those operating or residing in Tbilisi on April 11 are advised to avoid the vicinity of the aforementioned locations due to the slated protests and associated high risk of unrest while allotting for travel disruptions.
