Argentinians are holding a large demonstration in the capital Buenos Aires over controversial economic reforms announced by the country's new President Javier Milei. Thousands of workers are taking part in a 12 hour strike, also voicing their opposition to planned reforms that are expected to amend labor laws. Milei's government has slashed public spending and devalued the local currency - arguing the difficult overhauls are neccessary after years of over-spending that have left the country in debt.
But protesters say the changes have made life for those already struggling even harder - forcing many to ask for help.
