Thousands of demonstrators gathered in Geneva to express opposition to the Group of Seven, according to gdelt and economictimes.indiatimes.com. The G7 summit is scheduled to take place in Evian-les-Bains, France, with leaders from Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United States, along with invited leaders from Brazil and India, set to attend. The summit will occur the day before the three-day annual gathering begins. Protesters in Geneva included environmentalists, feminists, opponents of imperialism, defenders of independent media, and individuals supporting Palestinian rights, according to gdelt. Some wore black hoodies and masks. Organizers distributed a handbook containing a map of the security perimeter, guidance on preparing for the march, and advice on conduct if detained by police. Swiss and French authorities imposed travel restrictions, limited border crossings, and extensive security measures, including barricade tape installed by Geneva police. The G7 summit is one of the first major international gatherings since the United States and Israel launched military action against Iran in late February.
