Hondurans for Peaceful Resistance

Tegucigalpa - The National Front against the coup in Honduras convened Monday a new rally in defense of constitutional order, amid a hardening of the repression by the de facto regime.

Union, rural, student, political, human rights organizations and others carried out Sunday a mass demonstration to demand the return of President Manuel Zelaya.

The statesman traveled from Washington to this capital, but the aircraft that brought him could not land, as troops were deployed at the Toncontin international airport to block the runway.

Zelaya confirmed his return in several messages sent to the popular resistance which, since his abduction and transfer to Costa Rica by the coup perpetrators on June 28, has been rallying every day in defense of democratic legality.

Incidents among armed forces and demonstrators took place in the southern entrance of the airport. Soldiers shot and killed two young people, while others were injured. The de facto government extended hours of the curfew and suspension of several constitutional guarantees from 18:30 hours to 05:00 hours of the following day.

The Radio Globo station, which transmitted Zelaya's messages and expressions of repudiation to the coupists from the population, only broadcast music or messages from the de facto government since yesterday afternoon.
