A painted wall that reads “Pedro Castillo freedom” is seen near the Ilave International Bridge which is blocked by members of Aymara communities in Ilave, Puno, Peru on January 16, 2023. “We are going to be in the capital to make our voice of protest heard”, promises an Andean leader who is preparing together with hundreds of peasants to go from Puno to Lima to demand the resignation of the President Dina Boluarte as part of the protests that have been going on for five weeks and have left 42 dead.
