• Video from the Canal del Congreso shows PRI leader Alejandro “Alito” Moreno confronting Senate president Gerardo Fernández Noroña during the National Anthem, followed by shoving and blows.
• An official post from the Senate’s X account states Moreno went up to the dais and attacked Fernández Noroña, lending institutional confirmation to the incident.
• Fernández Noroña says he will file criminal complaints for injuries and damages, including on behalf of a staffer named Emiliano who was knocked down and whose equipment was damaged.
• Moreno accuses Noroña of initiating the first push and claims Morena manipulated the agenda to silence the opposition, while Noroña accuses PRI legislators of coordinated aggression.
• Fernández Noroña plans to seek the desafuero of those he says participated in the aggression, as parties and ethics bodies weigh potential sanctions and internal disciplinary steps.
