Event: President José Raúl Mulino announced on August 29, 2024 that curfews will be enforced from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM in the San Miguelito area of Panama City and Colón province. This is in response to rising number of homicides and drug-related incidents in these areas. The government has not yet announced specific dates for the curfew.
U.S. citizens should practice vigilance and should shelter in place if near affected areas during curfew times. Review personal security plans; remain aware of your surroundings, including local events; and monitor local news stations for updates.
