A worldwide pro-Palestine demonstration is scheduled for Monday, yet activists, aiming for heightened disruption, have opted not to disclose protest sites to Victoria Police, leading to a significant strain on resources.
A global pro-Palestine rally has been planned for Monday, but in a bid to cause maximum disruption, the activists have refused to disclose protest locations to Victoria Police – resulting in a massive strain on resources. The group claim they will “identify and blockade major choke points” in the economy by “focusing on points of production and circulation”.
Groups are always encouraged to contact Victoria Police for advice and to discuss potential police resourcing. “As such, we have had to pull resources from a number of regional police stations, as well as specialist areas, in preparation for protests at numerous locations. “If one city faces police repression, other cities will extend or expand their blockades or initiate other actions in response if able to the best of their abilities and capacity.”
