Near the airport of the city of Juliaca, which was closed for maintenance work, in the Puno region in southeastern Peru, clashes took place between demonstrators and security forces, resulting in ten civilians and four police officers injured, according to the Office of the Ombudsman. According to the authorities.

A month after Peruvian President Dina bolarte took office, demonstrations continued demanding her resignation, which resulted in 22 deaths, at a time when the country is looking for a way out of this crisis.

"We respect the right of the people to demonstrate peacefully, but the message of the majority is that we do not want instability to continue in our country, we want to live in peace,"bulwarti said at an official ceremony.

Demonstrations resumed in several areas after a temporary pause during the end of the Year holidays. 22 people have been killed and more than 600 injured since the start of the demonstrations, which have taken on a violent character, especially in the center and south of the country, where ousted President Pedro Castillo has many supporters.

Former vice president polarte replaced Castillo in December, the sixth person to take over the presidency in five years in a country in the midst of a chronic political crisis marked by suspicions of corruption.

The demonstrations began after parliament impeached and later arrested Castillo, who was charged with disobedience after he tried to dissolve parliament.

The protesters are demanding polwarti's resignation, a new parliament and immediate elections, which have been pushed back from 2026 to April 2024.

The president called for dialogue and urged dissatisfied citizens to meet with the government to find a way out of the crisis.
