Fire and smoke bombs lit by opposition party in Albanian parliament

Members of Albania’s opposition Democratic Party set off smoke bombs and lit a small fire, quickly extinguished, in the middle of parliament on Monday in a failed bid to stop the chamber from voting on the 2024 budget. MPs piled chairs in the centre of the chamber and red, green and purple smoke filled the air as security kept protesters back from the seat of Prime Minister Edi Rama. #fire #albania #parliament Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
