(13 Nov 2019) Protests against social inequality in Chile continued for a 26th day on Tuesday with huge demonstrations across the country and a national strike that brought much of the country to a standstill Tuesday.
After an earlier peaceful march in the capital, groups of hooded protesters also confronted police, who used water cannons and tear gas to disperse them.
The strike drew widespread participation across the country, generating a holiday atmosphere in many cities.
Classes were canceled and some government offices scaled back their services.
Chile is one of the wealthiest countries in Latin America, but it is also one of the most unequal, with a swath of basic services privatized.
A student protest over rising subway fares October 18 has grown into a broad movement demanding reforms to education, health care and pensions.
It has been a mostly peaceful movement, though there have been violent clashes between demonstrators and police.
Twenty people have been killed and the National Institute of Human Rights in Chile has documented more than 2,000 injuries.
