Participants are gathering in the area between the Council of Ministers building and the Presidency building for the traditional evening protest downtown Sofia. They are demanding the resignations of Bulgaria’s cabinet headed by Premier Boyko Borissov and of Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev. Protesters are also demanding machine voting and early elections. The organizers of the protest rallies from the "Toxic Trio" are collecting donations for their cause via their Facebook page. They also promise to show how each penny raised by donations is spent, reporters of BNR inform.

Earlier, citizens gathered for a counter protest in front of the National Palace of Culture in Bulgaria’s capital. They demanded the resignation of President Radev, BGNES informs.
