Albanian police fired water cannon and tear gas in Tirana on Sunday, as anti-government demonstrations entered a sixth day. Hundreds of people gathered outside the education ministry, chanting ‘Rama, resign’, before the clashes spread across the city centre.
Protesters threw rocks and Molotov cocktails, and officers replied with rubber bullets. A police station was set ablaze, and the entrance to the interior ministry was also damaged by fire. The health ministry said 28 people were injured on Sunday, 19 of them officers.
