This morning, an eviction was carried out at the building located at Mexico 700. The City Police entered the premises without a court order or prior notice, citing only a potential risk of collapse. This residential building also functioned as a soup kitchen for six years, which was crucial for the daily meals of many families. As the afternoon progressed, sewing tables were brought out to the street, indicating that some residents also used the space as a workplace. This vital space for daily food distribution now remains surrounded by a security operation, while dozens of people wait on the sidewalk in the hope of accessing an evening meal. The operation is led by the new head of the City's security, Gustavo Colángelo, whose directives, according to organizations, come directly from the City's Executive Branch, headed by Jorge Macri. Entire families remain outdoors, demanding the presence of the media to highlight a conflict that they claim is repeated at various points throughout the City. Later, a press conference will be held at 19:00 at the San Telmo Assembly (Assemblies of the People) amid growing conflict over the housing situation in the area. In response to the situation, they are calling for an open meeting and a community stew at the intersection of Avenida Brasil and Avenida José in the Constitución neighborhood this Tuesday, the 14th, starting at 9:00 AM.
