[00:32:12]>> [snorts] [snorts] >> So, once again, like I said, people are trying to reach La Plaza Murillo, which is the main the main artery.

[00:33:30]I think this is where you find the most important office in La Plaza Murillo.

[00:33:37]So, the cops are trying to de-escalate the situation, but it's super hard way because, you know, there is people in four corners way, so >> [clears throat] >> I am not sure which way is the center of the city. Like you can see, people running and all the stores are closed.

[00:35:41]This is wild.

[00:37:08]The the population is fighting with the government. Look at that. There is a lot of people, once again, they are all trying to get to La Plaza Mayor, which is where you find, I think so, the office of the the president, you know?

[00:37:28]So, they are all trying to go up there.

[00:37:32]But, like we have seen, the the cops are blocking the the road, eh.

[00:37:46]>> [snorts] >> Not sure if I should take you on that way, though, eh.

[00:37:51]Yo. [snorts] So, La Presidencia is in La Plaza Mayor.

[00:37:57]And, well, people are trying to get to La Presidencia to try to take over the the government, you know?

[00:38:13][ __ ] look at that.

[00:43:35]For sure, guys.

[00:43:37]And well, like you can see, everything is uh shut down.

[00:43:42]So, very intense, you know? I try to be as much careful as I can, but sometime people are uh tripping, you know? So, when they see you as a foreigner, sometime people are getting very uh violent, you know? For no for no reason.

[00:44:05]So, [snorts] well, it's a big mess, eh? Yeah.
