Overview
- After two days of mobilizations, dissident teachers dismantled their camp outside the Chamber of Deputies and declared the national stoppage over, with participants returning to their home states.
- CNTE leaders warned they will escalate if demands go unmet, floating a 72-hour walkout, airport blockades and even actions targeting 2026 World Cup activities.
- Actions included toll-booth seizures on key routes such as México–Puebla and México–Cuernavaca and confrontations with police near Palacio Nacional and at San Lázaro that hindered access to the legislature.
- The Education Ministry said about 90% of schools operated normally, reporting 20,377 basic-education sites suspended classes out of 202,188 nationwide.
- The federal government reaffirmed a commitment to dialogue as the union pressed demands including repeal of the 2007 ISSSTE law, and teachers in Chiapas briefly blocked access to the state’s main airport without disrupting flights.
