Clashes broke out between police and protesters as hundreds of thousands of women marched in Santiago to demand an end to violence against women.
The protesters on Sunday gathered at the Plaza Italia, one of the main hubs for the more than four months of anti-government demonstrations, and filled the nearby streets.
They then marched up Alameda Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares in the Chilean capital, chanting and singing as they went.
"It's great to see so many women today," Elizabeth, one of the demonstrators, told AFP.
She came out to demand protection of indigenous women's rights.
"I love when women put their ovaries to the side and become empowered, move forward and change everything."
