Any demonstration / any demonstrations

Hello dear techers!

Which one do you think is correct?

The Bahreini government had earlier warned against any demonstration/any demonstrations near the royal palace.

I have already been told that both are correct but I have hard time understanding why?

Thanks in advance.

You may also consider that 'demonstration' can also be uncountable.
