The Dark Side of Colombia Few People Know

In 2025, Colombia was rocked by two major attacks—one on a military base in Cali and another when rebels shot down a police helicopter in Antioquia. The strikes killed soldiers and civilians, signaling how fragile the country’s internal security remains.

The bombings came during ongoing peace talks, deepening frustration with the government’s strategy. For many, these attacks showed that Colombia’s conflicts are far from over. Armed groups remain strong, peace deals are crumbling, and violence continues to find new ways to resurface.
