Statue vandalism, cafe scenes documented in Plovdiv afternoon

Plovdiv, Bulgaria

Here is a concise description of the video: A person spray paints a white statue of an old man with a beard, seated and reading a book while holding a cup, with white spray paint. The statue is already primarily white, but the individual is adding another coat. The background consists of a wooden structure and a protective plastic sheet.

The video shows a low-angle view of a red-brick building with a dome, some palm trees, and a minaret-like spire against a partially cloudy sky. The building has several windows illuminated by warm-toned lights. A flag with blue and white stripes hangs on the right side of the building. A pedestrian bridge with a glass railing leads towards the building. Several people are walking on the bridge. In the background, there are additional buildings, including one with a large dome. The environment suggests an urban or historical site. The lighting implies it is late afternoon or early evening. There is a small patch of green grass and bushes in the foreground.
