Bolivia faces escalating political tensions as President Luis Arce condemns the takeover of military units by supporters of former President Evo Morales. The military asserts that armed groups have kidnapped soldiers and seized weapons, urging an immediate and peaceful withdrawal. With ongoing blockades across the country in response to legal issues facing Morales, calls for a state of emergency in affected regions grow. The unrest follows accusations against Morales related to statutory rape, contributing to rising discontent amid an economic crisis and highlighting deepening political divisions as both leaders prepare for the 2025 elections.
