Protesters Block Tláhuac Avenue In Mexico City To Demand Housing Rights
Members of the Coalition of United Human Settlements of the Sierra de Santa Catarina in the Tlahuac borough of Mexico City stage a blockade in Paso del Conejo to demand the immediate suspension of the Administrative Recovery proceedings for Conservation Land being carried out in the Sierra Santa Catarina. They argue that these actions violate their rights and are conducted without prior dialogue, as some individuals allegedly purchase land in the area, which is a protected zone and therefore no urban settlements are permitted, in Mexico City, Mexico, on January 12, 2026.
