Summary

A small group of women residents in Puerto Suarez, Bolivia reportedly gathered outside a municipal pharmacy on April 9, 2025, to protest the mayor's management of the local hospital, throwing eggs at the mayor and his team. The incident appears localized and low-severity.

Supply chain impact
