Argentine retirees and fans of several soccer teams have clashed with police during a protest in front of Congress in the capital, Buenos Aires, against the economic policies implemented by the government of President Javier Milei.

Footage of police firing at an elderly woman during a protest in Argentina has gone viral as protests against the government's economic policies grow in size, particularly in response to pension cuts.

Many of those involved in the clashes wore football jerseys and the regular protest turned out to be one of the most violent demonstrations yet against President Javier Milei's budget-slashing policies.
