Honduras: Protesters aim to demonstrate in front of the Presidential Palace from 17:00 in Tegucigalpa July 21
Activists to demonstrate in front of Presidential Palace in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, 17:00 July 21. Tight security likely. Avoid the area.
Event
Civil rights activists affiliated with the anti-corruption organization A Single Voice for Honduras (Una Sola Voz por Honduras) aim to demonstrate in front of the Presidential Palace in Tegucigalpa on July 21 from 17:00. The purpose of the action is to demand the establishment of the International Commission Against Impunity in Honduras (Comision Internacional Contra la Impunidad en Honduras, CICIH).
Transport and business disruptions are highly likely in the area. Although the action should be largely peaceful, police will likely deploy to the demonstration as a precaution. Clashes are possible, especially if police attempt to disperse protesters forcibly.
Advice
Avoid all demonstrations as a precaution. If violence occurs, immediately leave the area and seek shelter in a nongovernmental building. Heed the instructions of security personnel.
