LAHT
A battle between police and farmers over a mining concession injured at least 80 people... including 15 police...in the southern city of Andahuaylas.
The farmers want their provinces declared mining-free zones and all projects cancelled that are managed by the Ares and Apurimac Ferrum companies.
They fear polluted rivers and damage to crops.
