Greece: Activists to demonstrate in Athens May 24
Activists to demonstrate at Hungarian Embassy in Athens, Greece, from 19:00 May 24. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.
Activists plan to demonstrate at the Hungarian Embassy on Leoforos Vasileos Konstantinou in Athens from 19:00 May 24. The purpose of the rally is to express solidarity with anti-fascist activists who are incarcerated and for whom authorities have reportedly issued arrest warrants. The number of people that may participate in the demonstration was not immediately clear.
Authorities will probably deploy to the rally site to monitor the demonstration. Localized transport disruptions will likely affect the vicinity of the rally. Confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers or politically opposed passersby cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the demonstration as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Hungarian Embassy in the late afternoon or evening. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
