Colombia Sends Troops to Border City
Colombia has deployed 1,200 troops to the border city of Cucuta as part of its largest anti-drug operation in years, per latintimes.com.
Local authorities reported 109 arrests during an overnight operation in Cucuta, as tensions rise over military presence in the region, reports londondaily.news.
The deployment follows a recent bomb attack in western Colombia that killed four, raising concerns about security along the Venezuelan border, notes acleddata.com.
Colombian officials are evaluating whether increased militarization of cities like Cucuta will help reduce violence or provoke further instability.
