Alleged Rebel Leader Killed in Colombia as President Targets Armed Groups The killing of Hernando Forero Mosquera, a man suspected of leading a dissident faction of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc), marks a significant escalation in President Abelardo de la Espriella's crackdown on armed groups.
This operation is part of a broader effort to tackle narco terrorism and rebuild security in the country.
De la Espriella's administration has inherited a complex situation in Colombia, where dissident groups have capitalized on the peace deal signed in 2016 by Farc and the government.
