After former President Pedro Castillo was impeached and arrested earlier this month, deadly protests have crippled the nation’s infrastructure. Hundreds of tourists, including many Americans, are now stranded in Machu Picchu with trains halted and nearby roads blocked. Tonight, Peruvian authorities say they’re helping tourists get out, with humanitarian flights expected to begin Sunday.

The message was. Your vote worths nothing, democracy is a farse. What counts is the power of money, that can pay lawyers to produce mountains of corruption acussations, that owns the media, that buys judges … The people now disposessed from its elected representation has learned your lesson … this was expected .. as in Bolivia with Evo Morales
On which side are the deaths?
The country is literally in a revolution right now, an actual UPRISING is happening in your eyes! There is no government because the people are risen up against it! And the U.S. just put a travel warning 5 days into the chaos as "not recomended for travel?" While in Mexico they immediately hike the travel warning mere minutes after any shooting which has nothing to do with tourism. This despite the fact that the U.S. has mass shooting literally every week! Why is there no travel warning against going to the U.S. where anyone having a bad day can just flip out and mow down a crowd?
Wtf yall doing in Machoo Peeechoo anyway? Always where yall not suppose to be 🤣
We need a "once you leave America it's at your own risk"

Jesus Christ called people everywhere to repent, so if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe with all your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved and inherit the kingdom of heaven and eternal life. To this, people would accept Jesus Christ in life in their hearts and told other people how good he is, how he saves, heals and frees and gives eternal life for free 2
Support the protestors! Reforma del sistema de justica!
when you leave America it's on you baby
We need to band together and Elect Ron DeSantis President
Bad time for travel
Americans aren't in danger. They just can't leave their vacation and go home. Really not an emergency. They should just chill out and drink more Pisco Sour.
LUCKILY, I left the day before the Cusco airport closed. Just came back home yesterday!
You love to see it
They vacationed in Peru?! LOL, that's fing hilarious, ignorant fools.
It's like that dumb basketball player that tried to sneak weed into a country that *hates8 homosexuals becasue she was making $1 Million/year to stand for the Russian Flag. 🙄
Machu Picchu's pretty cool though.
🙏
What the CCP-PLA is doing in South America is deeply disturbing. I pray for the people Peru and Nicaragua, especially.
