Police in Argentina clashed Tuesday with anti-government protesters outside Congress, where senators were scheduled to debate a bill on government and economic reforms proposed by libertarian President Javier Milei. A CNN en Español team on the ground witnessed police using water cannons and tear gas to disperse the crowd, while protesters were seen hurling objects back at police. A car belonging to a TV station was overturned and set on fire before it was extinguished by firefighters.
So far, there are no official reports of injuries, but CNNEE journalists witnessed paramedics helping injured people. Demonstrators from various social groups and unions had gathered there to voice their opposition to the proposed reforms.
