The unrest, fueled by austerity measures like canceled fuel subsidies and soaring inflation, has left major cities isolated, caused dozens of injuries, and claimed at least 17 lives — many from lack of medical access. Indigenous and rural workers, once supporters of the previous administration, now lead the demonstrations. While the U.S. backs Paz and offers emergency aid, the decree authorizes armed forces to restore order and reopen critical supply routes — a move that could deepen tensions as the crisis deepens.
