Switzerland: Activists to demonstrate in Bern April 27

Anti-WHO activists to protest at Bundesplatz in Bern, Switzerland, from 16:00 April 27. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.

Warning

Activists plan to protest at Bundesplatz in Bern from 16:00 April 27. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce the World Health Organization (WHO). Organizers indicate that "guests of honor" from the Hungarian Our Homeland Movement (Mi Hazank Mozgalom) and Bulgarian Revival (Vazrazhdane) political parties will be in attendance. 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 or politically opposed passersby cannot be ruled out.

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