The traces of blood are still fresh on the synthetic field in the town of El Plateado (Argelia, Cauca). This Thursday the community – still haunted by a drone attack that left one child dead and 15 injured – gathered to honor the victims and the man identified as being responsible for the attack came to the scene.
Yobanny was the alias of the leader of the Carlos Patiño Front of FARC dissidents. He asked for the microphone. He ordered a moment of silence. He then spoke to the community gathered in the township coliseum.

“Thank you all for providing this moment of silence for an innocent childinnocent of this absurd war of the Colombian State, which does not want to understand the true circumstances of this war,” said the leader in a video called EL COLOMBIANO. The public remained silent.
It was 9:20 at night on Tuesday, July 23. The community gathered on the synthetic pitch in the middle of a recreation week to celebrate. Suddenly, an explosive device fell on the playing field: It was a mortar launched from an illegal drone.
A 10-year-old boy was in the stands. It was Dilan Camilo Erazo Yela, who was present at the scene because he was watching his father play a soccer match. When the explosive exploded, he managed to take a few steps and then fell.
Payment: He was Dilan Camilo Erazo, the child who died in the middle of an explosive attack by dissidents in Cauca
Videos recorded by the public showed the moment medical personnel tried to revive the minor. The efforts were in vain. The child suffered internal bleeding. Fifteen more people were injured.
The Joint Command of the Military Forces accused the dissident Yobanny of launching the explosive. The official version says that the man intended the attack as revenge against civilians who refused to follow his orders to attack the soldiers still on patrol in the town.
When the dissident appeared before the public, he denied that he was the author of the attack. He wished to point out that the attack had been carried out by the official forces.
“General Mejía accuses me of being a criminal, but you are actually the criminal, the one who ordered his men to send mortar-type explosive devices to the civilian population. “It’s not me,” said the dissenter in the video known to this newsroom.
Payment: Now the dissidents attack the militants and the police with suicide drones
The truth is that the public insisted that the armed activists remove them from the conflict. This Wednesday they marched and asked for their lives to be respected. They do not want to be the target of war.
“We want the Micay region to find hope again and we will be able to live in peace at some point. We must tell all armed actors to leave the civilian population out of the armed conflict,” said the mayor of Algeria, Osmán Duan Guaca Acosta during a demonstration organized by the community.
The Military Forces indicated that they launched an attack against the leaders of the dissidents in Cauca. The objective is to find out the whereabouts of the alias Andrés Patiño or El Mocho, the leader of the Western Bloc Jacobo Arenas; alias Zamora, leader of Fardey Díaz’s company, alias Yobanny, who is responsible for instrumenting the population, and alias Kevin, the main leader of this Carlos Patiño structure, who would be responsible for the attack in El Plateado.
