Peru anti-government protesters clash with police in Puno

Dozens of anti-government protesters have clashed with police in southern Peru amid renewed unrest in the wake of the removal and detention of former President Pedro Castillo.

The protesters attempted to take over the airport and police used tear gas to disperse them, the Reuters news agency reported. Demonstrators set fire to a police tank outside the Inca Manco Capac airport in Juliaca, in Peru’s Puno region late on Friday, according to local media reports and images circulating on social media.
