The peaceful tone in Ferraz has exploded on the seventh night of protests. Around seven thirty, protesters and radicals gathered in the Madrid neighborhood of Argüelles. The riots at the PSOE headquarters resulted in 24 arrests and 7 injured police officers.
In less than an hour the entrance to Ferraz Street on Márques de Urquijo was already packed. Approximately 8,000 people have been counted, so it could be considered the largest demonstration this week. Around 500 agents have been controlling the area tonight. The concentration took place in a very demanding atmosphere. Young and old have protested against the agreement between Psoe and Junts along with posters with many guns and Spanish flags with holes in them.
Although the majority have protested peacefully, the ultras have once again sneaked in among the protesters. Tension broke out when they began to throw flares and firecrackers at the area protected by the police, where some journalists were also present. Several people have confronted those who have given the fascist salute. And once again, shouts of “manipulative press”, “moors” and a multitude of similar chants have been heard. The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal wanted to be present at tonight’s demonstration.
New night of altercations
The riot police have forcibly broken up the concentration, which has lasted longer than the previous ones. After a few minutes of tense calm, people of all ages have fled the danger. Throwing of bottles, containers, and other forms of vandalism have caused the first arrests, some by agents infiltrated among the radicals. Marqués de Urquijo Street has become the main scene of the pitched battle. Some people have taken refuge in bars.
The most radical have once again repeated their favorite script in these nights of altercations. In their sights, the police and also journalists. Some of them have insulted an Antena 3 Noticias team.
Meanwhile, the ultras have escaped through the nearby streets with cries of Nazi ideology. The demonstration ended with a peaceful sit-in. One more night, violence has returned to Ferraz, although this time without injuries.
