Clashes erupted among protesters and police when a dozen activists attempted to burn a US flag in front of the venue hosting the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Wednesday. Protesters built a human circle, holding each other's arms while one activist set the American flag on fire in the middle of it. Several police officers made their way through the crowd and extinguished the fire.
Protestors are seen being detained by police officers in Tbilisi, Georgia, as thousands gather outside parliament against the adoption of a controversial Kremlin-style "foreign influence" law. Tbilisi has seen three straight nights of mass rallies over the bill that mirrors repressive laws on advocacy groups and media outlets introduced in Russia, and that have been slammed by the European Union and the United States.

President of the centre-right Social-Democratic Party Partido Social Democrata (PSD) since May 2022, Luis Montenegro holds his final rally ahead of the March 10 general election. The 51-year-old led its parliamentary group when it was in power from 2011 to 2015 and imposed severe austerity measures. Despite the far right's potential for depriving the PSD of a parliamentary majority, Luis Montenegro has insisted he will not accept entering into a coalition with Chega. IMAGES
