Groups of protesters have burned containers and have thrown stones, bottles and pyrotechnics against the Mossos d'Esquadra on the

third night of protests in Barcelona

to demand the freedom of rapper Pablo Hasel, in which they have also attacked the facade of the headquarters of El Catalonia newspaper.

For the third consecutive night, hundreds of people have taken to the streets in Barcelona and in other Catalan towns to protest Hasel's imprisonment and this Thursday, as in the two previous days, they

have burned containers again, have thrown some motorcycles to the ground and they have thrown stones and other objects

at the Mossos d'Esquadra.

In Barcelona, ​​the protesters concentrated in Plaza Tetuán shortly after 7:30 p.m. and from there they went to the headquarters of the Ministry of the Interior, located a few meters away, at the confluence of Paseo de Sant Joan with Diputación, which it was armored by a large police device.

Faced with this situation, groups of protesters have

thrown stones, bottles and pyrotechnics

at the agents, to which the Mossos have issued several notices to stop their action.

The concentrates have then dispersed through the adjacent streets, where they

have thrown motorcycles to the ground and have crossed containers on the road

, which they have set on fire in Bailén, Aragón, Girona and Valencia streets.

Very close to the headquarters of the Ministry of the Interior is the newsroom of El Periódico de Catalunya, where some protesters have thrown stones at the main door, have broken some windows and have made some graffiti.

During the protest, some of the protesters attacked journalists who took pictures

.

In Barcelona, ​​some concentrates have also damaged a shop on Bailén Street and have torn off traffic signs.

In Sabadell, groups of protesters have also thrown objects at the police line at the National Police station and have set up barricades with containers.

In Tarragona, the protesters have begun to concentrate on the Rambla Nova and, after going through several streets of the city, on a road that has passed through the Provincial Court, they have ended up cutting the A-7 highway for less than an hour, until they have left this path.

During the riots that occurred in Catalonia the past two nights, the Mossos d'Esquadra and the local police officers have arrested around fifty people and

fired some 420 precision projectiles

, one of which has allegedly caused a protester to lose an eye last Tuesday in Barcelona.
