With gas and detonations, the police evicted the demonstration against the land law

A peaceful demonstration against Argentina's private property inviolability law turned violent after nearly six hours when federal police used tear gas to disperse protesters outside the National Congress. The protest, which took place on Thursday, escalated between 5 PM and 6 PM as small groups of demonstrators attacked barriers, threw debris, and set trash bins ablaze. In response, federal forces including the Federal Police, Gendarmería, and Prefectura deployed water cannons, rubber bullets, and armored vehicles to quell the unrest. Authorities reported three protesters detained and three officers injured, two seriously, while the City Police added nine more arrests for assault and resisting authority, totaling 12 detainees. The demonstration had initially drawn attention to two areas, one where speakers addressed crowds and another where Governor Axel Kicillof was present, before tensions shifted to the corner of Yrigoyen and Entre Ríos, leading to the eventual dispersal of the crowd.
