The protest expanded into a strike and boycott campaign, with roadblocks and demonstrations in several towns. The coalition demanded lower prices for basic food, fuel and construction goods and also raised wage concerns. Negotiations began later that week. Reporting documents both mass participation and state repression; the timeline records the mobilization without treating violence as the movementโ€™s defining feature.
