Protests In Puerto Rico Over Unused Supplies

Hundreds of protesters are taking to the streets of Puerto Rico’s capital, angry over a warehouse full of emergency aid that was never used.

Last week, it was revealed that a warehouse full of emergency supplies like food, water, and cots had gone unused since 2018’s Hurricane Maria.

Protesters marched from the governor’s mansion to the Capitol building shouting “This is not the end! It’s just the beginning!” and calling for Governor Wanda Vasquez to be ousted.
