Colombian Senator Alexander López, a member of the governing Historic Pact coalition, was targeted in an armed attack on the Cali–Popayán highway when FARC dissidents fired on his convoy and briefly kidnapped one of his bodyguards. President Gustavo Petro attributed the attack to a drug trafficking group led by Iván Mordisco and named the site as one kilometer from a previous bombing by the same group that killed 21 civilians, highlighting ongoing violence in the region.
