Relatives of inmates close a road and burn tires during a protest in the surroundings of the Regional 8 prison complex in Guayaquil, Ecuador, on March 28, 2024. At least one person died and four were injured in Wednesday's riot at a prison in the Ecuadorean port of Guayaquil, from which a feared criminal kingpin escaped months ago, the government said on Thursday. After a wave of violence following the prison escape, President Daniel Noboa imposed a state of emergency and declared the country in "a state of war" against gangs. (Photo by MARCOS PIN / AFP)
