At least five dead and dozens injured in Colombia car bomb attack
At least five people have been killed and dozens injured after a car bomb exploded on a busy street in the western city of Cali in Colombia, according to authorities. The blast targeted the Marco Fidel Suarez Military Aviation School in the city's north and initial reports indicate 36 people were injured, police said. Alejandro Eder, the mayor of Cali, condemned the attack and offered a reward for information on those responsible. Earlier on Thursday, a separate attack against a police helicopter killed at least 12 people in a rural area outside the northwestern city of Medellin. According to eyewitnesses, the car bomb in Cali killed civilians in the street and damaged many houses. "There was a thunderous sound of something exploding near the air base," an eyewitness told AFP news agency. Several buildings and schools were evacuated and the mayor has announced a ban on large trucks entering the city. Defence Minister Pedro Sánchez called the blast a "terrorist attack" and blamed "the narco cartel alias Mordisco" - referring to guerrilla leader Ivan Mordisco of the now defunct Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc). "This cowardly attack against civilians is a desperate reaction to the loss of control over drug trafficking in Valle del Cauca, Cauca, and Nariño, where the Public Force has neutralized much of this threat," he said on social media. Addressing the separate attack on a police helicopter, President Gustavo Petro said the aircraft was on a mission to eradicate coca leaf crops - a main ingredient in cocaine. The helicopter crashed to the ground after being hit by a drone. At least 12 people were killed, including police officers, but it was unclear whether they died in the crash or on the ground. Images circulating on social media showed thick plumes of black smoke billowing in a forested area of Amalfi in the country's north. Sánchez said the attack was perpetrated by the EMC guerrilla group, the largest offshoot of Farc. Colombia has experienced a rise in violence in recent months involving clashes between security forces and dissident rebels, paramilitaries or drug gangs. Drone attacks have also become increasingly common in recent years: in 2024, 115 such attacks were recorded in the country, most of them carried out by illegal armed groups. Last week, three soldiers were killed in a drone attack in the country's south-west, where explosive devices were dropped on members of the navy and army who were manning a checkpoint. At least seven dead in Colombia attacks, local media reports Three Colombian soldiers killed in attack with explosive-laden drones
