Hundreds of protesters gathered in the central Chilean city of Pudahuel south of Santiago, on the 2nd consecutive day of demonstrations in remembrance of Neco Moras and Ariel Moreno, victims of police brutality during a football match on the 28th-29th of January in 2020.
Protesters took to the streets for the entire day across Nigeria, but remained after nightfall for a vigil in honor of those killed by SARS before and during the current protests. Demonstrators venerated at least 20 names this night, including many who were killed recently by live bullets during protests. Anonymous also participated, taking down the Central Bank website.
The Anarchist Political Organization in Athens protested outside of Parliament in Syntagma Square in solidarity with former 17 November member Dimitris Koufontinas, who entered a hunger strike on the 8th of January to demand a transfer to the Korydallos prison in Athens, which would enable him to see visitors and receive adequate medical care. Police arrived at the scene in riot gear, detaining and later releasing everyone.
Thousands of students and other protesters in Thessaloniki marched in solidarity with the Koufontinas hunger strike and demanded the repeal of a law passed allowing police into universities across Greece for the first time since the fall of the military dictatorship.
