STORYLINE:
The anger of Peru’s residents against their government expands across the South American country, but nowhere is it more visible than in Andahuaylas, a remote rural community in the Andes.

This is the region where the poor have struggled for years and voters supported the now-ousted President Pedro Castillo, himself a peasant like them.

Their fury is such that their protests have continued despite the deaths of two young demonstrators over the weekend.

"She is very hurt (her mom), because he has been killed, like in a slaughterhouse, he is a student, athlete and my mom asks for justice, as well as my family, for my brother,” said Raquel Quispe, 23, sister of one of the young people killed.

The community after all is no stranger to civil unrest.

Here, people revolted against a president in 2005, causing the deaths and injuries of many residents.
