Former Honduran President Manuel Zelaya underwent specialized medical treatment in Mexico for pericardial inflammation and fluid accumulation following surgery in Honduras in early September. In early October, Zelaya and the Libertad y Refundación (Libre) party addressed social media rumors claiming he had died in Mexico City, describing such reports as ‘false and malicious.’ Zelaya confirmed he was alive and making progress in his recovery. By mid-October, Zelaya returned to Honduras after being medically discharged. While he noted that he is not fully recovered and requires continuous medical supervision for approximately two years, he announced his intention to resume his role as the general coordinator of the Libre party. He indicated he would reintegrate into political activities gradually and expressed appreciation for Rixi Moncada, who served as sub-coordinator during his absence.
