On 4 August, relatives of missing persons and human rights activists marched through Mexico City, demanding answers and justice amid the country’s ongoing crisis of enforced disappearances.
The demonstrators carried photographs of their loved ones and banners calling for government action. The march highlighted the frustration of thousands of families who have been left without information about missing relatives, many of whom disappeared amid violence linked to organised crime and weak law enforcement.
Activists called on authorities to strengthen investigations, improve transparency, and provide support for affected families. Mexico has one of the highest numbers of enforced disappearances in the world, with thousands of cases dating back decades.
The march ended at the National Palace, where protesters urged President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s administration to take concrete steps to resolve cases and prevent further disappearances.
Human rights groups say lasting solutions require comprehensive reforms to Mexico’s justice system and security forces.
