Colombia Terror Attack: 17 Killed As Colombia Hit By DEADLIEST Attack | ‘Police Helicopter Downed’ [Video]

Colombia Terror Attack: 17 Killed As Colombia Hit By DEADLIEST Attack | ‘Police Helicopter Downed’

Colombia has been rocked by one of its deadliest coordinated attacks in recent years, leaving at least 17 people dead. Authorities say dissidents of the defunct FARC rebels launched two brutal strikes: a car bomb outside a military aviation school in Cali and a drone attack on a police helicopter in Antioquia. At least 12 police officers were killed in the helicopter attack, which targeted personnel eradicating coca leaf crops, the raw material for cocaine. Another five lives were lost in the car bomb blast, which also injured more than 30 people. President Gustavo Petro initially blamed the Gulf Clan drug cartel but later pointed to FARC dissidents as key perpetrators. The violence underscores Colombia’s deepening security crisis as drug cartels and rebel remnants escalate attacks. The United Nations recently reported coca cultivation reached record highs, fueling tensions across the country. #Colombia #FARC #CarBomb #HelicopterAttack #Cali #Antioquia #TerrorAttack #DrugCartel #CocaCrops #NarcoWars #BreakingNews #LatinAmerica #SecurityCrisis #GlobalNews #Violence #ColombiaAttacks #FARCDissidents #CocaineTrade #PoliceKilled #WorldNews ~ED.102~HT.408~

Pahalgam Terror Elimination: India’s Swift Justice in Operation Mahadev| Oneindia

Pahalgam Terror Elimination was executed with precision and resolve as India’s security forces took down the three terrorists responsible for the brutal April 22 Pahalgam attack. Under Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and Jammu & Kashmir Police eliminated Suleman, Afghani, and Jibran near Srinagar. Forensic tests, Pakistani-made arms, and direct identification confirmed their involvement. The Pahalgam Terror Elimination showcases India’s zero-tolerance stance against terrorism and the government's commitment to justice. In Amit Shah’s words, the message is clear—those who attack innocent lives on Indian soil won’t walk away. Pahalgam Terror Elimination is more than an operation—it's a declaration. #PahalgamTerrorElimination #OperationMahadev #IndiaFightsTerror #JusticeForPahalgam #AmitShahSpeech ~HT.178~PR.282~CA.144~GR.125~
