Switzerland: Activists plan anti-NATO protest at Saint-Francois Square in Lausanne from 16:30 June 22

Anti-NATO activists to gather at Saint-Francois Square in Lausanne, Switzerland, from 16:30 June 22. Disruptions likely.

Warning

Political activists and civil society groups plan to gather at Saint-Francois Square in Lausanne from 16:30 on June 22 to denounce Switzerland's perceived rapprochement with NATO. It is unclear how many activists will attend the demonstration.

Crowds and an increased security presence will likely prompt traffic congestion in the vicinity. While the event is likely to pass without significant incident, clashes cannot be discounted.

Allow additional time for travel near the protest venue. Heed instructions from authorities.
