Protest Against Mining in Arequipa

AREQUIPA, PERU - MAY 27: Protestors hold banners and flags during the protest against a 1,400 million dollars mining project by Southern Peru in the southern region of Islay, 1100 km south of Lima, which could affect farmers in the region, on May 27, 2015. Mining companies and church authorities demanded a truce to calm the violent protests against the Tia Maria copper project that has left three dead in the 50 days protesters have taken the streets. The Army deployed 1,000 soldiers to back up police and order forces already in the area as the government assesses whether to declare a state of emergency in the region.
