At least twelve people were killed and more than a dozen others injured after an explosive device detonated today, Saturday April 25, on Colombia's Pan-American Highway in the southwestern department of Cauca, according to Colombian authorities and multiple local media reports.
The attack took place in the municipality of Cajibío, in a sector known as El Túnel, when a cylinder bomb was launched or detonated near a bus traveling along the highway, one of the country's most important transport corridors, Colombian media outlet Radio Caracol informed. Initially there were seven deaths, but five more of the at least 20 people injured died in the following hours after the attack.
