Dozens of former guerilla fighters in Colombia forced to abandon village
DOZENS of former guerilla fighters and their families were forced to abandon their village in southern Colombia on Tuesday.
This came after they received threats from members of a rebel group that is still fighting the government, authorities said.
The displaced former fighters were members of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, the guerilla group that signed a peace deal with Colombia’s government in 2016.
