The left-wing mobilization called in front of Congress against the Law of Inviolability of Private Property project, although it attracted much less participation than in previous episodes, resulted in a day of extreme violence, with 12 Kirchnerists detained, four security forces injured, and numerous damages in the downtown area.
The incidents began in the afternoon while the Senate debated the initiative promoted by the national government. A group of leftists attacked the agents deployed in the operation with stones, blunt objects, and other projectiles, prompting a response from the security forces using tear gas, water cannons, and rubber bullets to disperse the more violent groups.
According to the latest official report, the Federal Police arrested three people for assault and resistance to authority, while the City Police arrested another nine, bringing the total to 12 detainees.
During the clashes, four officers were also injured, including a City Police officer who suffered an elbow injury after being hit by a stone and three members of the federal forces affected during the attacks.
