Unionized educators to protest in central Athens, Greece, from 13:00 Sept. 9. Heightened security, localized transport disruptions likely.

Informational

Unionized educators plan to protest at the Attica Regional Directorate of Education on Xenias in Athens starting at 13:00 Sept. 9. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce planned school mergers and alleged improper use of force by law enforcement officers at a previous related demonstration on Sept. 4. It remains unclear how many participants may attend.

Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. 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 protest site. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
