Is it true that the Tlatelolco massacre, in which Mexican security forces killed protesters at the Plaza de las Tres Culturas in Mexico City, took place on 2 October 1968, ten days before the opening of the Mexico City Olympic Games?

Yes. Multiple reference and peer-reviewed sources state that on 2 October 1968 Mexican forces killed protesters at the Plaza de las Tres Culturas in Mexico City, and three of them add that this was ten days before the opening of the 1968 Summer Olympics.
