Guatemalan authorities successfully rescued 160 children and teenagers from the Lev Tahor sect, a fundamentalist Jewish group, amid allegations of abuse and human trafficking. The operation, which involved local police and Homeland Security, took place in Santa Rosa and San Marcos, following reports of mistreatment, including sexual abuse. During the operation, authorities also discovered human remains, raising further concerns about the activities within the sect. This intervention was prompted by complaints from four minors who had escaped the community, leading to a coordinated effort to protect the vulnerable individuals involved.
