The governor of Antioquia, Andrés Julián, through his Twitter account, has made an urgent call for the Colombian National Army to intervene in the La Loma de Ochali district, in Yarumal.
According to his message, the local community is suffering because of the violence unleashed by the criminal groups EMC-FARC and Clan del Golfo.
«The presence of the Army is urgently required in the La Loma de Ochali district, Yarumal.
EMC-FARC and Clan del Golfo bandits sow terror among the civilian population.
Clashes between these criminal structures throughout the day put the inhabitants of this rural area at risk.
“A total peace on paper: roses for criminals, thorns for citizens,” Andrés Julián posted on his Twitter account.
Reports indicate that clashes between these armed groups have been constant throughout the day, generating a climate of terror and putting the residents of La Loma de Ochali in grave danger.
The situation has been described as a “total paper peace,” suggesting that peace agreements have benefited criminals while citizens face the worst consequences of the violence.
Andrés Julián’s request underlines the urgent need for military intervention to restore security in the region and protect civilians from attacks and clashes.
The community of La Loma de Ochali continues to await an effective response from the authorities to guarantee their safety and well-being in the midst of this crisis.
