Colombia President Gustavo Petro has accused Ecuador of bombing targets inside his territory after the burned remains of 27 people had been found near the border.
Colombia President Gustavo Petro said that an attack which had left "27 charred bodies" did not appear to have been carried out by Colombia's own forces or any illegal armed groups which he said do not have armed planes.
"The explanation isn't credible," he said, later adding that an unexploded bomb dropped from an aircraft was found "100 meters from the home of an impoverished peasant family."
Petro had earlier linked recent strikes to intensifying US-backed counter-narcotics operations in the region. "We are being bombed from Ecuador," he said late on Monday.
Ecuador's right wing wealthy president, Daniel Noboa (35), denied the accusations, insisting his government's security forces were operating strictly within national borders. "We are acting in our territory, not yours," he bleated.
The Dummkopf Trumpf ally, oligarch Daniel Noboa, brayed that Ecuador was "fighting narco-terrorism in all its forms" and "bombing places that serve as hideouts for those groups, of which many [groups] are Colombian".
The exchange marks the latest in a series of increasingly public clashes between the two ideologically opposed leaders.
Yup.
The US military calls it something else now, but it's still a Death Squad factory.
Here's an infamous Latin America veteran who personally carried a carte blanche letter from USSECDEF Donald Rumsfeld in Iraq and operated outside the MNF-I chain-of-command.
"US Army SF Colonel James Steele served in El Salvador during the 1980s and later played a controversial role in post-invasion Iraq. He was tasked with training and overseeing Iraqi security forces, including units accused of operating extrajudicial killing (XJK) squads."

**** Sinister Trumpf Junta Targeting Colombia President Gustavo Pedro with Drug Charges ****
"Colombian President Gustavo Petro is being examined in criminal investigations by federal prosecutors in SDNY and EDNY.
Relations between Washington and Bogota entered a volatile phase after Dummkopf Trumpf seized power 14 months ago, and the two leaders have clashed over various issues. Using the DEA to assemble drug charges against Venezuela President Nicolas maduro, on 2 Jan 2026 the nefarious Trumpf junta ousted and abducted him and his wife Cilia Flores who are now both imprisoned in MDC in Brooklyn and awaiting trial in EDNY."
