JAKARTA - The situation in the Tugu Tani area, Central Jakarta is starting to be conducive. But there were still masses gathered on one lane while burning tires.

Vehicles can already pass after the road is completely closed due to the chaos. Previously, the crowd pelted the police with stones, repeatedly fired tear gas, driving away the crowd.

Judging from the Kompas TV broadcast , it appears that the Marines have descended into the Tugu Tani area. Tires that were burned in the middle of the road were extinguished.

The TNI has indeed assisted the police in anticipating chaos. Several groups of TNI members spread towards Sarinah and Tanah Abang to ensure that no crowd had gathered.

Meanwhile, Kapolda Metro Jaya Inspector General (Irjen) Nana Sudjana recounted the chronology of the emergence of a number of young provocateurs after the 1310 demonstration by the National Alliance for Anti-Communist Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (ANAK NKRI) ended.

Nana said that the action of the NKRI CHILDREN went well. Until finally, around 600 provocateurs, mostly students, entered the demonstration location, approached the barbed wire barrier and began to riot.
