Overview

• Thousands marched from the Plaza de las Tres Culturas to the Zócalo from 4 p.m., following the route along Ricardo Flores Magón, Eje Central and 5 de Mayo.
• The Comité 68-led mobilization drew student, union and rights groups pressing current causes including justice for Ayotzinapa, the disappearances crisis and solidarity with Palestinians.
• Localized violence broke out as a self-styled “black bloc” vandalized property and looted shops, and a police officer was set on fire near Bellas Artes before receiving emergency care.
• The city deployed security and traffic operations across the Centro Histórico, with street closures and temporary adjustments reported on Metro access around Zócalo and nearby stations.
• Authorities said operations continue downtown and had not yet provided totals on arrests or injuries, as similar commemorations unfolded in other cities such as Morelia.
