Soccer fans demonstrating along Sweden Avenue in Valencia, Spain, late Dec. 16. Increased security, localized disruptions likely.
A large group of soccer fans is staging a protest along Sweden Avenue (Avinguda de Suecia) in Valencia late Dec. 16. The purpose of the action is to denounce the current management policies of the city's soccer team Valencia FC. Hundreds of participants are attending the gathering.
Authorities will probably monitor the demonstration as a precaution and could disperse the crowd if it becomes unruly. Isolated minor skirmishes between police and demonstrators cannot be ruled out. Associated localized transport disruptions are likely.
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.
