Breaking News: Clashes in Mexico City Leave 120 Injured
At least 120 people, including 100 police officers, have been injured in clashes during anti-government protests in Mexico City. The incidents occurred on Saturday as thousands of demonstrators marched to protest against violent crime and President Claudia Sheinbaum's government.
The immediate impact of the clashes is being felt, with 20 people arrested for crimes including robbery and assault. Demonstrators dismantled parts of a barrier protecting the National Palace, where Sheinbaum lives, prompting police to use tear gas on the crowds.
The protests were organized by Gen Z youth groups, drawing support from citizens protesting against high-profile killings, including the assassination of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo. President Sheinbaum has accused right-wing politicians of funding the marches, which also took place in other cities.
The situation remains tense, with authorities working to restore order. Further developments are expected as the protests continue. This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
