Operation Azarías: Colombia Bombs FARC Dissident Camp in Guaviare, Killing Initial Eight

Colombia's armed forces bombed a Carolina Ramírez Front camp — a structure of the FARC-EP dissident faction (Estado Mayor Central) led by alias 'Iván Mordisco' — in a rural area of Miraflores, Guaviare department, overnight into Monday. President de la Espriella announced the strike, code-named Operation Azarías, saying 'Anoche en el departamento del Guaviare, nuestra Fuerza Pública realizó un bombardeo a un campamento narcoterrorista.' The government's initial count put the toll at eight dissidents killed and three captured, including two individuals who claimed to be minors — with authorities warning the figure would likely rise as ground forces secured the site.
