Thousands march against government in Macedonia

Thousands of people marched on 11 October 2016 along the streets of FYR Macedonia's capital protesting against the rule of the conservative VMRO-DPMNE party, ahead of an early parliamentary election taking place on 11 December 2016.

The march, called by the main opposition social democrats, was symbolically held on the 75th anniversary of Macedonia’s anti-Fascist uprising against Bulgarians, Italian and German occupiers at the beginning of World War II.
