Peru’s government approved an
overnight curfew in the restive southern region of Puno, the
country’s prime minister announced on Tuesday, after violent
protests escalated earlier this week leaving at least 17 dead.
The curfew, which will run from 8:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. local
time in the region, will be in place for three days, according
to Prime Minster Alberto Otarola.
