- Investigative program Punto Final revealed that President José Jerí held an unregistered, late-night meeting with businessman Zhihua Yang in San Borja, prompting an official acknowledgment.
- Security footage and reports describe the president arriving in a hood near midnight at a building that houses companies linked to Yang.
- Congressman Elvis Vergara, who leads the Fiscalization Commission, said he will propose an extraordinary session to examine the meeting, with lawmakers Jaime Quito and Esdras Medina also pressing for clear explanations.
- Palace communications said Jerí used a hood to avoid photo requests and characterized the visit as a dinner tied to planning for a Peru–China Friendship Day event.
- Coverage notes Yang’s ties to firms including Tenda Cerámicas AC, which previously hired Nicanor Boluarte, and opinion pieces draw parallels to clandestine meetings associated with former president Pedro Castillo.
