Loreto transport strikes in Peru

Overview

Transport unions in Loreto, Peru, announced a 48-hour strike involving river transport workers, truck drivers, and various guilds. The protest was organized in response to rising diesel prices, which workers claim are impacting incomes and increasing the costs of goods and services.

Union representatives requested that the government establish a decentralized working group and called for ministers to visit the region to address the economic situation. Protesters planned to gather at the Plaza 28 de Julio, stating the demonstration would be peaceful but warning of further measures if a rapid response is not received.
