Snippet:
Protesters marched through the city carrying banners reading "My teachers, my heroes" and "Violence is not democracy", while some areas showed signs of earlier unrest, including burned bicycles and graffiti. The demonstration followed several days of tension between activists and police, during which officers used water cannons and tear gas to disperse crowds.
