Fire ravages migrant holding facility in Ciudad Juarez
Police stand guard outside a Mexican immigration detention center in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, Tuesday, March 28, 2023, where a fire in a dormitory left more than three dozen migrants dead.
Dozens of migrants are dead after a fire swept through a holding facility in the Mexican border town of Ciudad Juárez. Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador says the fire was started by migrants who were protesting news of their deportation. And, during the Khmer Rouge’s reign, many of Cambodia’s ancient relics were spirited out of the country. Now, looted antiquities are starting to be returned. Also, protests in France continued on Tuesday as workers railed against raising the retirement age from 62 to 64. These reforms would theoretically help young people, but students have turned out in droves to support the older generation. Plus, we remember the Ethiopian pianist and nun Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou, who died at the age of 99.
