They identify a child under 12 as the author of attacks with molotov bombs against Firefighters and Carabineros in Huechuraba

A 12-year-old boy has been identified as a suspect in attacks with Molotov bombs against a firefighter station and a police station in Huechuraba, Chile. The incident occurred on Sunday night, with the attackers targeting the Sixth Fire Station and the 54th Police Station. Preliminary information suggests the child was part of a group of at least four minors who allegedly carried out the attacks after one of them fell while cycling and did not receive assistance from firefighters. Security camera footage helped identify the minor, who is currently considered legally incapable due to his age. The local mayor described the acts as 'terrorism' and announced plans to file a criminal complaint. The case is now under investigation by authorities.

Change of urgency of the government forces to suspend voting project that regulates the use of social networks by minors

The Chilean government's decision to change the urgency classification of a legislative proposal has led to the suspension of voting on a bill aimed at regulating social media usage by minors. The bill, which was initially classified as having 'summa urgencia' (urgent priority), was downgraded to 'simple urgencia,' preventing the commission from proceeding with its vote. This initiative seeks to establish comprehensive protections for children and adolescents online, including restrictions on access to platforms, algorithmic accountability, and updates to cybersecurity laws. The minister of Social Development and Family emphasized the government's commitment to the project, though critics argue the change in urgency undermines its progress.
