Activists plan to hold a demonstration at the Sachsen Arena in Riesa, Saxony State, from 09:00 Jan. 11. Participants are denouncing the Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) federal conference, which will take place at the same venue Jan. 11-12. Hundreds to thousands of people may join the protest.
Heightened security is likely in the affected area. Localized transport and business disruptions are probable. Additional protests may occur on both days of the conference. Clashes between rival groups are possible, posing incidental risks to bystanders.
Avoid the demonstration as a precaution and to minimize travel delays. Allow additional time for journeys. Follow all official directives. Leave the area at the first sign of unrest.
