Traffic at the exit of the city of Stara Zagora in direction of Trakia Motorway remains blocked, the BNR correspondent reported. The dissatisfied citizens insist they will remain there until they are allowed to make a car procession around the roundabout at Trakia highway, and then return to the city. 

The protesters have sought dialogue with police to resolve the situation. They remain firm in their demand for the resignation of the government and the prosecutor general and hope to be supported by more people today
