Ecuador: State of emergency declared after notorious drug gang boss escapes from prison | BBC News
A 60-day state of emergency is taking place in Ecuador after a convicted gang leader vanished from his prison cell.
Adolfo Macías Villamar, better known as “Fito”, is the leader of Los Choneros, a powerful gang which is thought to have been behind some of the deadly prison riots in recent months.
He was being held in the maximum security wing of a jail in Guayaquil.
The emergency measures include the suspension of the right of assembly and a nightly curfew.

Brazilians will be voting for a new president on Sunday in a run-off election in which the veteran incumbent, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, is being challenged by right-wing Senator Flávio Bolsonaro.
Bolsonaro, the son of convicted former president Jair Bolsonaro, beat Lula in the first round of voting on 4 October by a narrow margin, but fell short of the 50% of valid votes needed to win outright, triggering Sunday’s run-off.
Polls ahead of the second round put them neck and neck.

The public health risk from the current Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been increased from “high” to “very high” by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In an update on Friday 22 May, the WHO’s head Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also said the risk in the wider region in Africa was “high”, but it remained “low” at a global level.
There are different strains of Ebola; the current strain identified in Democratic Republic of Congo is caused by the Bundibugyo virus.
The WHO says there are no approved drugs or vaccines for the strain of Ebola caused by the Bundibugyo virus.
Asma Khalid speaks to the BBC’s Health and Science correspondent, James Gallagher, about the outbreak. She asks: what is Ebola, what are the symptoms, how does it spread, where does it come from and whether there a cure, vaccine or treatment.

Tens of thousands of security personnel have been deployed and roads barricaded in Delhi to stop the latest Cockroach Janta Party demonstration.
The group says its leader, Abhijeet Dipke, is among hundreds who have been reportedly detained since Friday evening.
Dipke – who has said he is prepared to go to jail – started the movement in May almost as a joke in response to a remark by India’s Chief Justice Surya Kant, who had likened jobless youngsters to “cockroaches”.

President Trump has said the month-long ceasefire between the US and Iran is on “massive life support”. He described Iran’s response to US proposals to end the war as “garbage” and “totally unacceptable”, telling reporters: “That piece of garbage they sent us – I didn’t even finish reading it,”
Iran laid out its demands to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz in a counter-offer sent to the US on Sunday. Esmail Baghaei, a foreign ministry spokesperson for Iran, responded to Trump’s comments, saying Tehran’s proposals were “responsible” and “generous”.
Tehran’s offer includes an immediate end to the war on all fronts – a reference to the continued Israeli attacks against Iran-supported Hezbollah in Lebanon – a halt to the US naval blockade of Iranian ports and guarantees of no further attacks on Iran, according to Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency. It also reportedly includes a demand for compensation for war damage and an emphasis on Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.
The US president said Iran’s leaders were “very dishonourable people”, adding: “Look, I’ve had to deal with them four or five times – they change their mind.” He also accused Iran of going back on an agreement to allow the US to remove its supply of enriched uranium and insisted that Iran would never have a nuclear weapon.

Because of what's happening in Ecuador, it is time to ask the U.S. for an intervention just like what they did in Chile over the year 73'. Besides, here in Chile we're in a similar scenario, then at some point the president will be forced to declare "state of emergency" like the president of Ecuador did it. Meanwhile, let's pray for Ecuador's people in order to stop all of this.

What is happening in Ecuador is very unfortunate, there are many innocent people who have died because of criminals, I hope that the President can solve this problem soon and that there are no more deaths. Ecuador used to be a very calm country but due to the bad decisions of the politicians they had to go through this situation

How could this be an embarrassment for a president who took office just 2 months ago? She doesn't even know the correct names. I'm Polish who lives in Ecuador for 10 years now, this situation has been building up for since the pandemic and this president is a non-politic who is a long awaited hope for some action. After a big crackdown on corruption among high officials, he now is trying to solve this problem crime problem. What I think they should do is to strengthen the border with Colombia to starve those gangs.

It's really a shame in the modern world we don't have a simple structure of principles that all countries must follow internationally to ensure these kind of problems aren't given a chance to develop the oversight should be responsibility of all countries to make sure we all together have a better world to live in regardless of what system you have we need global core principles that everyone can agree to and be accountable for. Real support is needed and internationally audited with actual powers to remove those who are breaking the basic core principles of established and developing nations.
