Colombia Farc rebel leader Roman Ruiz 'killed in raid'

Colombia Farc rebel leader Roman Ruiz 'killed in raid'

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-32882406

A commander of Colombia's largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc), was among five rebels killed in a bombing raid on Monday, the Colombian military says.

The rebel, known as Roman Ruiz, led the 18th division of the Farc, which operates in north-west Colombia.

The bombing was the latest in a series of attacks on the Farc by Colombian security forces.

Outrage

The attack on the soldiers caused outrage in Colombia, with many questioning the rebels' commitment to the peace talks.

The previous post of this same article was inexplicably alerted on because I stated that its time for Colombia to exterminate the FARC cockroaches. Its time for Colombia to erradicate this pest infestation of murderers, kidnappers, slavers, child abusers, extortionists, drug traffickers known as the FARC.
