Bolivia president vows joint military-police action against mafias in San Ignacio

Bolivian President Paz expressed solidarity with San Ignacio and confirmed coordinated military and police operations against international mafias, which he says have used Bolivia as a base for illicit activities for 20 years. The statement signals an escalation in state response, though details on scope and targets remain unclear. This matters as it indicates a potential shift toward militarized law enforcement in Bolivia.
