Greece: Activists to conduct march in Thessaloniki April 24
Retirement activists to march from Employment Center of Thessaloniki to Ministry of Macedonia-Thrace in Thessaloniki, Greece, April 24.
Retirement activists plan to hold a protest march in central Thessaloniki on April 24. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand improved retirement benefits. Demonstrators will gather at the Employment Center of Thessaloniki on Aristotelous before departing at 11:15 for the Ministry of Macedonia-Thrace building on Proxenon. It is unclear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely along the march route. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the affected area. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
