Support the people of Honduras against the coup!

Honduras Emergency Alert

Support the people of Honduras against the coup!
Demand the return of President Manuel Zelaya!

Child among those shot and killed by the military
On July 5, hundreds of soldiers blocked the runway at the
International Airport of Honduras' capital using military vehicles,
preventing the return of democratically elected President Manuel
Zelaya. President Zelaya has stated he will attempt another return
flight in the coming days.

More than 120,000 people had marched to the airport in Tegucigalpa
to demand that the Honduran coup plotters allow Zelaya to land his
plane and resume his presidency, and to fight against the repression of
the people's movement.

The military fired live rounds against the unarmed protesters, killing at
least three people, including one child. Hundreds more have been
wounded.

Zelaya was illegally ousted by the right-wing oligarchy in its attempt
to stop a non-binding referendum for the people to give their opinion
on whether they want constitutional changes for greater social and
economic rights.
