Poland: Activists to demonstrate in central Katowice July 30
Opposition activists to protest at Jozef Pilsudski Monument in Katowice, Poland, from 18:00 July 30. Heightened security likely.
Opposition activists affiliated with the Law and Justice (PiS) party plan to protest at the Jozef Pilsudski Monument in Katowice from 18:00 July 30. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce the current ruling government. It remains unclear how many participants the event may draw.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers or among groups of rival activists cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the protest site. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance.
