Political activists plan to hold a rally at Las Palmas de Gran Canaria from 12:00 on July 6. The event, organized by an anonymous group called "Red Social X," will occur at Manuel Becerra Square. Participants aim to denounce illegal immigration in the Canary Islands. It remains unclear how many participants will attend; however, opposing groups could organize counterdemonstrations in the area.
Authorities will likely deploy increased security to monitor the gathering. Localized road travel and transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Limited confrontations between demonstrators and opposing factions or between participants and law enforcement officers are possible.
Avoid all demonstrations as a standard precaution. Strictly heed instructions from authorities. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
