Last update: 5 hours agoViolence Crackdown: Honduras ordered a major military-and-police deployment after two back-to-back attacks left at least 24 dead, including five anti-gang officers killed near the Guatemalan border and 19 executed at a palm plantation in Trujillo—an escalation that President Nasry Asfura called “another wound Honduras does not deserve.” Gang Warfare: The attacks underline how palm-growing regions in the Bajo Aguan and along the northern coast are caught in turf battles tied to drug routes, with authorities pointing to organized criminal groups. Arts & Culture Spotlight: In a brighter note for Honduras Arts Week, the spotlight turns to Honduran performers and disability-led creativity—stilt walkers and artists linked to cultural heritage parades, including a May 23 showcase celebrating movement, sound, and community art. Sports Context: Elsewhere, Honduras appears in global youth football chatter as Under-17 World Cup groups take shape, keeping the region in the wider spotlight.
