Argentina’s President Javier Milei was evacuated from an election campaign event on Wednesday after stones were thrown at his motorcade amid public anger over allegations of corruption in his administration.
Video footage showed the libertarian leader ducking to avoid an object being thrown at him as he stood on a pick-up truck moving through a crowd in the Lomas de Zamora municipality, south of greater Buenos Aires.
The president was then rushed away from the event in a black van.
Presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni later said there were no injuries and blamed the attack on militants from the Peronist opposition.
