Australia: Activists to demonstrate at Parliament House in Melbourne from 17:00 Sept. 27

Event

Activists affiliated with the Melbourne Freedom Rally group plan to stage a demonstration outside Parliament House in Melbourne from 17:00 Sept. 27 to mark the resignation of Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews. Dozens to a few hundred people could participate in the action.

A heightened security presence is likely in the affected area. Associated localized transport disruptions are possible, especially if demonstrators march along nearby roadways or block roads. The gathering will probably be peaceful, though isolated scuffles are possible between participants and police.

Advice

Avoid the demonstration as a precaution. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Allow additional travel time near the gathering site. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
