Argentine Protesters Clash with Police Over University Funding Cuts
Thousands of Argentine students, teachers, and activists protested in Buenos Aires against President Javier Milei's cuts to higher education funding, demanding enforcement of a 2025 law mandating increased university budgets. While the main demonstration remained peaceful, some hooded individuals clashed with police, resulting in arrests and injuries. The government has reduced public spending as part of austerity measures to control inflation, despite court rulings ordering compliance with the funding law. Protesters emphasize education as a right, while officials condemn violence during demonstrations.
