Peru's new president Jose Jeri, who vaulted into power late on Thursday after the sudden impeachment of his predecessor, is one of the youngest heads of state globally - and one who has already had a bumpy ride on his way to the top.
Police and young anti-government protesters clashed in the Peruvian capital, Lima, over the weekend. A rights group said at least 18 protesters had been injured in protests held on Saturday and Sunday, dubbed "Gen Z march" by the organisers. A police officer suffered burns, officials said.
