Slovenia: Activists to demonstrate in Ljubljana Feb. 5
Activists to protest at City Hall in Ljubljana, Slovenia, from 14:30 Feb. 5. Heightened security, localized transport disruptions likely.
Activists plan to protest at City Hall in Ljubljana from 14:30 Feb. 5. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce a construction project that activists assert may contaminate the city's drinking water supply. The number of people that may participate in the demonstration was not immediately clear; however, previous related demonstrations reportedly drew hundreds of protesters.
Heightened security and transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near City Hall Feb. 5. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers.
