According to Polish news sources, more than one hundred thousand people are protesting in Warsaw against last week’s decision of the Constitutional Court, which effectively bans abortion in the country.
On Wednesday, 430,000 people protested across the country for the cause, Friday’s demonstration in Warsaw was planned to be the largest in history and, in addition to the demonstration in the capital, a parade is taking place in other cities.
The crowd is reportedly made up of young people, many holding placards demanding the right to dispose of their bodies, and others scolding the far-right ruling party PiS.
In the old town, masked men dressed in black, referred to in some reports as football hooligans, gathered to attack protesters with pyrotechnic devices. Police intervened and several were arrested on the spot.
The nationalists interrupted the protest in several places and the police used tear gas during one of the conflicts. Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz, former Interior Minister Donald Tusk, was also hit in the face.
A video was also made about the soccer hooligans attack:
Marta Lempart, one of the leaders of the Polish women’s strike, has announced that they will march in front of the house of Jarosław Kaczyński, president of PiS.
Polish public service television also reported on the protest, saying the incident was a biological bomb and a virus cloud hovered over the heads of protesters.
Upon viewing the images, Donald Tusk, Chairman of the European People’s Party, said: Poland has not lost.
