Police and hooded men confront each other near the La Moneda Palace in #Chile

Several armed and hooded individuals penetrated the perimeter fence and caused damage to one of the entrances to the Government House in the Chilean capital. The Carabineros (Military Police) intervened, leading to violent clashes.

Thousands of Chileans took to the streets to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the #coup d'état that ended the Government of socialist President Salvador #Allende (1970-1973) and began the dictatorship of Augusto #Pinochet (1973-1990).
