Hundreds mourned the activist Catholic priest Marcelo Pérez, killed in Chiapas, Mexico. Pérez, an advocate for Indigenous peoples and farm laborers, faced threats but continued his peace work. The killing, believed to be carried out by drug cartels, reflects the ongoing violence in Chiapas. Pérez's death adds to the toll of human rights activists killed in Mexico. The government's approach to drug cartels, characterized by avoidance, has failed to curb violence. Pérez leaves behind a legacy of activism and peace efforts in a region plagued by conflict.
