    Pope Leo XIV Meets Italy’s Inspectorate for Public Security for Vatican City - Vatican

    Pope Leo XIV meets members of Italy’s Inspectorate for Public Safety for Vatican City, which is charged with maintaining security in and around St. Peter’s Square, on January 19, 2026 in the Clementine Hall, Vatican. The Inspectorate for Public Safety for Vatican City is a division of Italy’s State Police, and thus distinct from the Vatican Gendarmerie and the Pontifical Swiss Guard. Pope Leo XIV thanked directors and police officers of Italy’s Inspectorate for Public Safety for Vatican City for their work to ensure the safety of the faithful and pilgrims around Vatican City, especially during such an intense year, which saw the Jubilee, the funeral of Pope Francis, and the Conclave.

      State of Siege Declared After Gang Killings of Eight Police Officers - Guatemala

      Inmates watch a riot at the Men's Detention Center Fraijanes II, Fraijanes Municipality, Guatemala, January 17, 2026. Guatemalan President Bernardo Arevalo has declared a nationwide state of siege for 30 days following a wave of coordinated attacks against the country's National Civil Police, which left at least seven officers dead, authorities said Sunday. The emergency measure seeks to strengthen state action against criminal gangs and guarantee public security, Arevalo said, after violence erupted in connection with prison riots in which gang members took 46 people hostage at three detention centers. Arevalo also decreed three days of national mourning for the fallen officers and confirmed that authorities have regained control of the three prisons where unrest was reported.

                      Protests Continue in Iran

                      Security forces detain protesters outside a commercial building on Ahmadabad Street in Mashhad, Iran on January 3, 2026. Iran has experienced recurrent waves of protests in recent years driven by political repression, economic hardship, rising living costs, and restrictions on civil and social freedoms, including women’s rights. Demonstrations have frequently been met with arrests, heavy security deployments, internet disruptions, and, according to activists and rights groups, the killing of protesters, as authorities move to suppress dissent.
