The curfew starts at 8 p.m. local time and runs until 6 a.m. the following morning, with plans to extend the measure over the coming days.
The decision follows a series of protests that have stirred controversy and concern among residents and local business owners. Many are preparing for changes in traffic, gatherings, and evening routines as the city grapples with the unrest.
This latest step is seen as part of the city's efforts to restore calm and maintain public safety during challenging times. While some applaud the measure as necessary, others are watching closely to see its impact on the community.
