Protests in Guinea against government corruption

One person was shot and killed and at least a dozen others were injured in Tuesday’s demonstration in Conakry against government corruption.

Advice

Overall, the political situation in Guinea stabilized after the presidential elections in October 2015. However, to minimize safety risk, always avoid any large public gathering or demonstration. Even peaceful situations can unexpectedly and quickly escalate.
