Peru's new government said Thursday a state of emergency will be declared in Lima in response to the ongoing violence.
Hundreds were injured and one person was shot dead by a police officer on Wednesday after demonstrations erupted into street clashes near the capital city's Congress building.
"We are going to announce the decision to declare a state of emergency at least in Metropolitan Lima," head of the cabinet Ernesto Alvarez told the press after a leadership meeting.
