Despite the resistance of those who were against the demolition of the National Theater, the action for its demolition started in the early hours of this Sunday. The demolition of the building started around 04:30 and was accompanied by tensions between protesters and police forces.
Activists who are against the demolition have started a clash with the police, while the latter have forcibly removed other materials that serve to disperse the crowd.
While the demolition of the National Theater continues, the artists tried a last resort, trying to break the police cordon, but the latter forcibly removed the citizens, including journalist Alfred Lela and other names in politics and art.
The demolition of the National Theater came after more than two years of resistance from people who were against the construction of a new Theater.
