Santo Domingo.- Soldiers and National Police officers have been posted at several busy intersections of Santo Domingo’s main arteries.
Although the unannounced deployment started around 6am in several points, it emerged that it was adopted to avert disturbances in the heels of a call to strike by the Conatra taxi and bus drivers for Monday in Santiago.
The troops and officers, which include a Swat team, were posted since early today in major arteries such as Máximo Gómez and 27 de Febrero.
