In Breña, authorities successfully executed a judicial eviction order to reclaim 3,000 square meters of sports area at the Mariano Melgar 04 school. The land, which includes synthetic grass courts, had been occupied for over 11 years without rent or utility payments. Minister of Education José Antonio Chang Escobedo noted that this action follows directives to restore order to public schools and is the first of several planned interventions. Following this, Minedu announced plans to recover 4,900 square meters of the Melgar Stadium premises in Arequipa. The operation targets various explanades and restroom facilities that have been occupied for four years following the expiration of a temporary lease. The recovery process is expected to be supported by police forces. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-09: Peruvian football: Sport Huancayo climbs to top of Clausura table Sport Huancayo tied for the Torneo Clausura lead after beating Deportivo Garcilaso 1-0.
