56,000 police officers and alcohol restriction for the game at the Azteca.

Measures for the Mexico-Czech Republic match

The government of Mexico City announced an unprecedented security operation for this Wednesday’s game at the Azteca stadium. 56,000 personnel will be deployed, five times more than the 11,219 employed last week.

The decision responds to the celebrations of the previous Thursday, when some 700,000 people gathered in the capital after Mexico’s victory over South Korea. Although there were no injuries, nearly 40 tons of garbage were collected in the Ángel de la Independencia and the Zócalo.

The Secretary of Security, Pablo Vázquez, detailed that 7,500 police officers will guard the Azteca stadium. Another 3,275 will be in the Zócalo and 4,200 on Reforma Avenue. The objective is to protect players, referees, authorities and fans.

Digital sexual exploitation affects 1.6 million adolescents in Mexico

1.6 million adolescents in Mexico suffer online sexual exploitation every year.

The report reveals alarming figures

Unicef, ECPAT International and Interpol published the study “Disrupting Harm México”, which indicates that one in eight adolescent Internet users in the country – around 1.6 million – experienced sexual exploitation facilitated by digital technologies for a year.

67% of cases occurred online only, mainly on social networks and platforms. However, violence is not limited to the virtual sphere: in almost two out of every three situations, the victims knew their attackers, who were usually friends, partners or family members.

The report documents serious under-reporting. 32% of victims did not tell anyone what happened out of shame or fear, and less than 1% filed a formal complaint. This reflects normalization and silence around these attacks.

Consequences and call to action

In mental health, the consequences are profound. Those who suffered this type of violence are 15 times more likely to self-harm and 12 times more likely to have thoughts about their own death, compared to those who did not have that experience.

Fernando Carrera, Unicef ​​representative in Mexico, asked to reinforce prevention and responsibility of digital platforms. Lorena Villavicencio Ayala, from SIPINNA, stated that the State must guarantee the safety of girls, boys and adolescents in digital environments.
