Via Twitter, Metro said these lines are “suspended with closed stations and no train service caused by protesters preventing minimum security conditions for passengers and workers.”
Something similar tweeted the Union of Professionals and Technicians of the Metro, who accompanied the tweet with a video at Currency station, where protesters threw a screen at the tracks, causing an explosion.
“It has been decided to close trade on lines 1 and 2 of @metrodesantiago Minimum security conditions for our company does not exist,” they say.
They then add that “it got out of the @GobiernodeChile’s hands, which keeps looking at this superficially, and not from the background. #MetroMoneda”.
