Greece: Unionized factory workers to demonstrate in Athens July 16
Unionized workers to protest at Ministry of Environment and Energy in Athens, Greece, from 12:00 July 16. Heightened security likely.
Unionized factory workers plan to protest at the Ministry of Environment and Energy (Ypourgeio Perivallontos kai Energeias) on Leoforos Mesogeion in Athens from 12:00 July 16. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand an end to layoffs and implementation of improved working conditions. It was not immediately clear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Ministry of Environment and Energy. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
