TL;DR Summary

Bullfighting resumed in Mexico City's Plaza México after a year and a half, with a full arena and protests outside. The resumption follows a legal battle between enthusiasts and opponents, with the first bullfighter entering the ring to cheers from thousands of spectators. Outside, about 300 activists protested against bullfights, while inside the plaza, the mood was festive. The nation's Supreme Court of Justice temporarily revoked a local ruling that suspended the events, and a decision is pending on whether bullfights affect animal welfare. Animal rights groups have been gaining ground in Mexico, while bullfighting followers argue that the ban affects their rights and jeopardizes thousands of jobs linked to the activity.
