Tensions flared during an ongoing protest outside the Prime Minister’s Office in Tirana, where demonstrators clashed with police officers.

The situation escalated after several protesters stood in front of a police van, blocking its movement.

Police officers intervened to remove the demonstrators, pushing them back and using tear gas. Protesters resisted the officers' actions during the confrontation.

The incident triggered scenes of chaos outside the government headquarters, where students and citizens have been protesting for several hours, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama.

Despite the clashes, other demonstrators remained in the square. The situation has since returned to calm, according to the latest information.
