Thousands of demonstrators marched through Quito to protest Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa’s health, education, and security policies, with many demanding his resignation. Led by kidney patients and angry students, who burned an effigy of the president, the crowd decried severe budget cuts, including a $126 million reduction in higher education funding and critical shortages of medical care. The nationwide demonstrations come as patient organizations warn that around 5,000 people have died in recent years due to a lack of medicine and treatment, highlighted by dialysis provider.
