In the face of the wave of protests against the new government, the government itself continues to impose repressive measures: it has just imposed an emergency situation in several areas of Peru to try to stop the protests that have started. Specifically, it has taken this action in the departments of Cusco, Lima and Puno, in the province of Andahuaylas (department of Apurimac), in the provinces of Tambopata and Tahuamanu (department of Madre de Dios) and in the district of Torata (province of Mariscal Nieto, department of Moquegua). The emergency situation in these areas has been in effect since Sunday for a minimum period of 30 days. This entails a series of concrete measures: "the inviolability of the domicile, the right to move freely through the territory, the right of assembly and personal freedoms and security" in these areas. In Puno there will also be an order to move for ten days between 20:00 and 04:00 hours.
