Albanian Opposition Deploys Smoke Bombs in Parliament

Opposition MPs in Albania, accusing the Socialist Party-led government of corruption, disrupted a parliamentary session by using smoke bombs. They called for a corruption investigation through the establishment of a commission and initially disrupted the session by overturning and piling chairs. Ruling party MPs had to bring in chairs from other rooms after finding no seating. The session ended after two smoke bombs were thrown, with Parliament Speaker Lindita Nikolla announcing that the schedule for the next session would be revealed shortly.
