In an incident that took place on the Transístmica road, university students and the National Police were involved in disturbances. This occurred after the University of Panama decided to suspend academic and administrative activities at its central campus due to internal conflicts within the institution.
Despite adverse weather conditions, students took to the streets expressing their discontent with banners and slogans. The intervention of police authorities was necessary to control the situation, resulting in confrontations between students and police officers.
This incident reflects the existing tension in the Panamanian university environment, where students seek to have their demands and concerns heard through protest and demonstration. University and police authorities are in constant communication to try to find a peaceful solution to the differences that have arisen in the educational institution.
Amid this tense scenario, both students and law enforcement are seeking to reach an agreement that allows for the restoration of normalcy at the University of Panama and to prevent future confrontations that could jeopardize the integrity of both parties.
