Australia: Animal rights activists to protest at Martin Place in Sydney from 1100 Dec. 12
Animal rights activists plan to protest at Martin Place in Sydney, Australia, from 1100 Dec. 12. Increased security likely.
Event
The Animal Justice Party NSW plans to hold a protest at Martin Place in Sydney from 1100 Dec. 12. Participants intend to denounce puppy farming and demand that the state government makes puppy farming illegal. Participation in the protest will likely be affected by ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) gathering restrictions, which prohibit public gatherings of more than 50 people.
Security personnel will likely monitor the protests and possibly enforce COVID-19 gathering restrictions if the demonstration is well attended. Police may close roadways in the area, causing localized transport disruptions. The protest will likely proceed peacefully.
Advice
Exercise caution near the protest site. Allow additional travel time in the area.
