Reports indicate that approximately 150 protesters have been arrested since Friday, as defense officials confirmed the mobilization of about 500 Marines to curb the escalating demonstrations.

As tensions mount, media personnel covering the protests have faced danger, with several sustains injuries due to projectile fire from law enforcement, underscoring the volatile atmosphere.
