In Mexico, the Senate voted Thursday to reject the dismissal of Oaxaca 's state government. The demand has been at the heart of an ongoing teachers strike in Oaxaca that has also called for better conditions and increased wages. The teachers want the government to fire state Govenor Ulises Ruiz. The Senate vote comes one day after another teacher was killed in the latest attack on Oxaca's protesters. The teacher, Fernando Hernandez, is at least the eighth person killed in the standoff with the state government.
