Bluewin listed reports of police deploying water cannons in Zurich’s District 4 and demonstrators setting barricades on fire in Basel during protests reported on Saturday, 31 October.
The two developments appeared as separate headlines in Bluewin’s coverage. The available report excerpts do not provide further details about the police operation in Zurich or the fires in Basel.
The reports came amid youth-led demonstrations taking place in several European countries. The Associated Press reported that calls to protest had also circulated in Switzerland, but its coverage did not detail the incidents in Zurich or Basel.
Details including the scale of the gatherings, any injuries or arrests, and the extent of disruption in either city were not available in the supplied coverage.
