"In May 2025, the Mexican government's Protection Mechanism for Human Rights Defenders and Journalists recorded an increase in applications from journalists, rising from 26 in May 2024 to 32 in the same month this year.
This represented an increase of six cases, equivalent to a 23% increase over the previous year. However, of those 32 requests, only 10 were admitted, all under the ordinary procedure, with no extraordinary admissions recorded."
