The exterior wall of the colegio de Santa Victoria of the Madres Escolapias, a private Catholic school, was spray painted with phrases such as "Death to Fascism," "School is Jail," as well as an 'anarcho-feminist' symbol.

The words and symbol were both painted in purple, a color commonly used by the anarchist/feminist movement. In July 2018, the church of San Lorenzo in Córdoba was vandalized with graffiti and in August 2018 the church of la Trinidad was also vandalized.
