PNP assured that personnel deployed in EDSA and other key areas, including the People Power Monument, EDSA Shrine, the Senate of the Philippines, Mendiola, Ayala Bridge, the U.S. Embassy, Liwasang Bonifacio, were instructed to exercise "maximum tolerance."

“The PNP recognizes and respects the constitutional right of every Filipino to peacefully assemble and express their views. Police personnel deployed on the ground have been instructed to exercise maximum tolerance, remain impartial, uphold human rights, and carry out their duties with professionalism and restraint,” it said in a statement.

“The PNP likewise calls on all participants to keep the activity peaceful and orderly and encourages the public to cooperate with authorities and observe traffic advisories in areas affected by the assembly,” the PNP added.
