Overview

• A weekend wave of arson and armed attacks on public transport left passengers injured, including two girls and two women with burns.
• Only about 30% of urvans are operating as leaders halted service after another vehicle was torched just as roughly 40% of units had briefly resumed.
• Mayor Gustavo Alarcón appealed for federal help, prompting the deployment of more than 200 Mexican Army and federal security personnel and expanded National Guard and state police patrols.
• Governor Evelyn Salgado Pineda publicly affirmed a commitment to safeguard the capital following the attacks and service suspension.
• Classes remained suspended for a second day on Tuesday, with police patrols and municipal fire trucks offering limited transport as taxis and combis failed to meet demand.
