Activists plan protests in central Rosario, Argentina, April 16 to denounce government policies. Tight security, disruptions likely.
Social and economic activists aligned with the Intersindical Rosario group plan to hold demonstrations in central Rosario April 16 to denounce the Milei government's social and economic policies. The main rally is set to gather at Plaza 25 de Mayo from 15:00; a large attendance is likely for this event. Additional protests may take place at other locations across the city, particularly near government buildings and in public squares.
Heightened security and localized transport and business disruptions are likely near protest venues. Clashes between police and demonstrators cannot be ruled out.
Avoid all protests as a precaution. If clashes occur, leave the area immediately and seek shelter in a secure, nongovernment building. Heed the directives of authorities. Plan for localized transit and business disruptions April 16.
