Chile has increased the police presence at the World Cup games after Mapuche groups protested in the capital city of Santiago. Indigenous activists blocked the road linking the airport to the city of Temuco on Wednesday as part of a long struggle against planned airport extensions on ancestral lands. The Mapuches also protested the rejection of their proposal to raise the Mapuche flag along with the Chilean flag at the championship games. teleSUR
