Activists plan to protest at Skanderbeg Square (Sheshi Skenderbej) in Tirana 17:00-19:00 May 24. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce same-sex marriage. It is unclear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers or passersby opposed to the protest cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near Skanderbeg Square in the late afternoon or early evening. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
