Peru protests: 2 cabinet ministers resign over deaths reported amid protests | Oneindia News*News
On Friday, pressure on Peru's government increased as two cabinet members resigned following deadly protests that have caused chaos in the country since former President Pedro Castillo's removal from office and arrest last week.
Education Minister Patricia Correa and Culture Minister Jair Perez announced their resignations on Twitter, citing the deaths of individuals during the unrest.
A 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck off southern Peru's coast, 600 km south of Lima. The shallow quake, felt as far as the capital, caused strong shaking in nearby towns. Initially, tsunami warnings were issued but later lifted. Some infrastructure damage was reported, including stone slides on a highway. The Peruvian government is monitoring the situation. The quake occurred due to Peru's location on the boundary of the South American and Nazca tectonic plates, part of the Pacific Ring of Fire.
