Alameda Central free of vendors for third day; police guard the area

Alameda Central, a central park in Mexico City, has been free of street vendors for three days straight as authorities continue a reordering operation. Police officers from the Secretariat of Citizen Security are stationed around the park's perimeter, guiding pedestrians and preventing vendors from setting up. While the main walkways and fountains are clear for visitors, small groups of feminist collectives have gathered, with police managing the areas around them. Some women sit with umbrellas and bags but without merchandise visible, while others have banners but are not selling goods. Police officers in full gear are positioned along the sidewalks. Inside the park, people are seen relaxing on the grass, eating, and children are playing. Officials from the Secretariat of Government are also present, conducting patrols and communicating via radio. The government plans to continue these operations until street vendors agree to a limit of 70 vendors in the area.
