Spain: Activists demonstrating in Madrid July 30
Activists protesting at Venezuelan Consulate General in Madrid, Spain, July 30. Heightened security, localized transport disruptions likely.
Activists are protesting at the Venezuelan Consulate General on Calle de Eloy Gonzalo in Madrid as of the evening of July 30. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce alleged irregularities in the recent Venezuelan election and to demand the resignation of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. A large crowd has gathered at the protest site.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely to affect the vicinity of the Venezuelan Consulate General until the protesters disperse. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers or ideologically opposed individuals cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the protest site. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers.
