Increased police presence is observed.

Protest action and tension

This action is described by "Prodalzhavame Promenata" as an expression of support for the detained mayor of Varna, Blagoomir Kotsev, and former deputy mayor of Sofia, Nikola Barbutov.

Messages from the Sofia Municipality, received by BTA, confirm that "Prodalzhavame Promenata" received the necessary permission to conduct its protest action.
