AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Violence in the region: Gunmen in Honduras carried out two coastal attacks, killing at least 25 people, including six police officers—one strike at a plantation in Trujillo left at least 19 workers dead, while another hit police in Omoa near the Guatemalan border. Human rights stakes: The Trujillo area has a long agrarian conflict, and rights groups have warned that defending land and the environment there can be deadly, citing past killings of environmental leaders. Cross-border crime: In the U.S., seven people from Guatemala living illegally were sentenced for running a smuggling operation that moved undocumented migrants from Guatemala through Mexico into multiple U.S. states. Cultural protection: Heritage emergency specialists and archivists gathered in St. Maarten for a regional meeting focused on protecting cultural sites during crises—Guatemala among the participants. Health alert: U.S. officials are investigating a bacterial outbreak that has sickened more than a dozen people, with the source still unknown.
