Guatemala Homicide Count Reaches 235 In April
Guatemala has been unable to maintain a downward trend in homicide rates. The security situation has shifted since the administration of President Ávalos. The previous consistent decrease in killings has not been sustained in recent periods. The Guatemalan state has failed to adequately serve its elderly population, accumulating 56,990 cases related to this failure. Guatemala recorded 235 homicides as of Tuesday, according to local reports. The figure suggests the monthly total may match previous months. Homicide rates in the country had been descending since January 2025.
