Gatherings banned in capital areas

Gatherings and demonstrations were prohibited in several sectors of the capital on Thursday, according to a decree from the police prefecture. The restrictions apply to public spaces and are aimed at preventing potential unrest.

Rising restrictions across cities

Restrictions on gatherings and demonstrations are increasing in many cities, with prefectures citing risks of disturbances following the violence and looting that occurred over the weekend in connection with the social movement. Authorities are taking a precautionary approach to ensure public safety.

Social movement linked to unrest

The violence and looting that occurred over the weekend are connected to a social movement that has been ongoing for several weeks. Protests initially started as peaceful demonstrations but escalated into confrontations with law enforcement.

Public safety as main concern

Prefectures emphasize that the increasing restrictions are primarily focused on maintaining public safety and order. Officials have stated that they are monitoring the situation closely and are prepared to adjust measures as needed.
