The demonstrators, many of them supporters of the main opposition SDSM party, whistled and chanted "Resignation!" and "No justice, no peace!" an AFP reporter at the scene said. Similar anti-government protests in the capital had turned violent on Wednesday, when demonstrators ransacked the offices used by President Gjorge Ivanov's team and set fire to the furniture. SDSM leader Zoran Zaev, who joined the latest protests, had earlier called for calm and AFP reporters late Thursday said the demos appeared to pass off without any serious incidents.
