Spain: Political activists to protest in Madrid May 26
Political activists to protest in Puerta de Alcala, Madrid, Spain, from 12:00 May 26; increased security, localized disruptions likely.
Political activists will demonstrate at Puerta de Alcala in Madrid from 12:00 May 26. The People's Party (PP) has called for the protest to denounce various government policies. Several thousand people are likely to participate.
Authorities will almost certainly deploy increased security to monitor the gatherings and the political summit. Road travel and transport disruptions will likely occur near the affected areas. Demonstrators, political activists from opposing factions, and law enforcement officers could engage in violent confrontations.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the demonstration site. Heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance.
