Portugal: Activists to demonstrate in Lisbon May 9
Activists to rally at Dom Pedro IV Square in Lisbon from 19:00 May 9. Heightened security likely.
Activists plan to rally at Dom Pedrov IV Square (Praca D. Pedro IV) from 19:00 May 9. The purpose of the demonstration is to encourage voters to support parties that want to continue political support for Ukraine in the upcoming European Parliament elections. It is unclear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security is likely near the protest site. Localized transport disruptions are possible. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and politically opposed passersby cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the demonstration as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near Dom Pedro IV Square. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
