A protest march is scheduled to take place in Mexico City on Sunday, December 14. The event will begin at 11:00 a.m., starting from the Angel of Independence Monument and proceeding to the Zocalo in the Historic Downtown neighborhood. Organizers expect participation from groups involved in a previous protest on November 15, which resulted in violence.
The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Mexico have issued guidance for those in the area. "Demonstrations can be unpredictable; avoid active protests and exercise caution if you encounter large gatherings or demonstrations. Monitor local media for updates. Follow the directions of local authorities and in case of emergency, call 911."
The embassy provided contact information for assistance, including phone numbers for calls from both Mexico and the United States, as well as links to resources such as international travel information, passport services, and social media channels.
Travelers are advised to remain aware of their surroundings during the protest and follow any instructions given by local officials.
