- Ayacucho’s Ccaccella bridge in Sancos collapsed over the San Jarara river, isolating roughly 6,000 residents as the local mayor alleged a lack of response from the Transport Ministry and the Ombudsman called for a modular span with Provías assistance.
- Lambayeque’s Oyotún district lost three community-built bridges after the Zaña river swelled, isolating about 3,000 people across eight hamlets as residents resorted to risky river crossings while local authorities seek funds for permanent works.
