Greece: Activists plan to demonstrate in Thessaloniki March 29

Activists plan to protest at Courthouse of Thessaloniki in Thessaloniki, Greece, from 11:00 March 29. Heightened security likely.

Warning

Activists plan to protest at the Courthouse of Thessaloniki on Oktovriou Street in Thessaloniki from 11:00 March 29. The purpose of the demonstration is to express solidarity with 49 university students facing charges for conduct during a previous protest. It is unclear how many participants may attend.

Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers, potentially escalating to clashes, cannot be ruled out.

Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Courthouse of Thessaloniki. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
