Three people were taken into custody following a protest in downtown Montreal that descended into violence on Friday evening. Demonstrators vandalized property, shattering windows and torching cars, during an event that combined opposition to a NATO parliamentary summit with pro-Palestinian activism, according to the Montreal Gazette.
The unrest occurred as around 300 NATO representatives gathered in Montreal for a summit addressing key issues, including the conflict in Ukraine, climate initiatives, and the alliance’s strategic goals. The event, which runs from November 22-25, coincided with a second consecutive day of widespread student-led pro-Palestinian protests across the city, as reported by the Montreal Gazette.
