Buenos Aires/Sputnik: More than 100 people have gathered near the residence of Argentine President Alberto Fernandez to protest against returning schoolchildren to online education amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a Sputnik correspondent reported.
The protesters, most of whom are children, are knocking at stockpots, beating drums and honking auto horns.
“Education is our right!” “Do not close schools!” “We want to school!” the posters of the protesters say.
On Wednesday, Fernandez announced new coronavirus-linked restrictions, including the two-week return to online education and a ban on the movement of people in the capital of Buenos Aires from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
