In the massacre yesterday in El Alto at least 25 people died, 94 were injured.
Many injured couldn't be recovered because police and military were shooting on everything moving.
Corpses were also transported away by the military so that the exact number of deaths is unknown.
For El Alto the state of emergency has been declared, so has martial law. Under the pressure of the protest the government has announced at a press conference this monday, that they suspend the gas exports for the time being and want to start a dialog with the social movements till the end of this year.
Nevertheless, they still continue to play down the number of deads to be 5 (amongst them a soldier).
