VOICED : Acapulco custodia el regreso a clases

The Mexican military was deployed to over 100 schools in Acapulco to address violence from organized crime, which had halted classes for weeks. This action convinced teachers to return to work, ending a strike that affected 31,000 students. The presence of soldiers is seen as a protective measure, despite concerns about children being educated in such an environment. The deployment aims to combat the violence that led to the deaths and kidnappings of teachers in 2014. While the military presence has brought some peace, there are calls for similar efforts in local neighborhoods. Acapulco, located in Guerrero, has been a site of significant violence, including the disappearance of 43 students, which drew global attention.
