On June 13, 2026, approximately 200 protesters dismantled metal and razor wire fences surrounding a luxury development site on Albania's Adriatic coast. The protests are part of ongoing opposition to a planned resort backed by a company linked to Jared Kushner, near Vlora, known for its environmental significance, including flamingo habitats and turtle nesting sites. Villagers from Rrjoll protested against the project, claiming it is being built on land they say was confiscated from them. During the protest, some scuffles occurred with police, but law enforcement did not intervene to stop the removal of the fencing. Zeke Nikolle Shullani, a local landowner, stated, "The protests will not stop until the residents of the village of Rrjoll are compensated. We are 200 families whose land has been seized." The Albanian government has granted the project "special status investor" designation.
