Ecuador crisis – President declares country at war with drugs gangs | BBC News
Ecuador’s President has declared that his country is engaged in an internal war with ruthless drugs gangs, after unprecedented violence on the streets.
Armed groups linked to drug cartels have launched a wave of bomb attacks and more than 130 prison officers are being held hostage by inmates in jails.
The violence began after a notorious drug lord escaped from prison. Tourists are being advised to stay indoors.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Will Grant in the city of Guayaquil, where masked gunmen stormed a TV studio.

A famine-stricken camp housing about 500,000 displaced people in Sudan has received its first convoy of aid in months.
The United Nations’ trucks arrived in Zamzam – which houses masses forced to flee during Sudan’s 18-month civil war – on Friday.
The UN’s World Food Programme (WFP) said food deliveries had been held up for months by fierce fighting in the nearby Darfur city of el-Fasher, as well as the “impassable” roads brought on by the rainy season.
The war – a power struggle between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) – has created the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, forcing 10 million people from their homes and pushing communities into hunger.

sick just sick I saw on a site how they slaughter people like it's nothing legs arms heads every limb is chopped off mercilessly for parents or children, women are slaughtered, people are shot for whatever reason, the fact that you do or can do something like that is evil. you are heartless, not a human being, not an animal, but a devilish beast. so many murders are committed in the world. is not normal, wars, Africa, South America where no laws are observed, everyone does whatever, ALLAH (GOD) says in the Koran that the angels said when he put Adam the first man on earth "They said: "Go on it (earth) appoint one who will cause corruption in it and shed blood, while we magnify You with Your praise and sanctify You?” (Surat al-Baqarah: 30) and Allah said, “Verily I know what you do not know.”
the angels already knew what was going to happen. But Allah does everything for a reason, after all, he is the creator of everything and we will all be accountable to him.

President Noboa is trying to rule Equador with, as Stalin had tried, an iron fist trying to "neutralise" gangs instead of learning to co-exist in relative peace and harmony, as Mexico has done, with its cartels. It is believed that cartels in Mexico are, in fact, the 5th largest employer raising the livelihoods of many of its citizens. In lieu of branding 22 gangs as "terrorist organisations", Noboa should be open to peaceful coexistence. I wonder if President No-boa is just a puppet for US interests trying to constrict underground enterprise and eliminate the wild snakes of Equador in hopes of paving inroads and quelling resistance for American intervention & expansion?

What’s so sad is that If you look at the gang members, they look like kids. Like I swear some of those guys couldn’t have been 16 17 or 18….that’s just sad to be hooked into something like that at such a young age…
