On 23 May 2026, anti-government protests began in the Albanian village of Zvërnec, near the Narta Lagoon. The protests, which popularly came to be dubbed as the Flamingo Revolution (Albanian: Revolucioni i Flamingove), were triggered by the government's handling of preparatory works and proposed luxury tourism developments linked to the Sazan Island and Zvërnec resort project, backed by American investor Jared Kushner.
