Thousands of people have taken to the streets of Buenos Aires in the first big protest against the new Argentine government's economic shock policies.

The march was led by groups that represent the unemployed and police were deployed in large numbers to stop the protesters from blocking roads. President Javier Milei announced measures that include spending cuts and a drastic currency devaluation. He also signed an economic reform decree that will end limits on exports.
