President Abelardo De La Espriella confirmed that the National Police and the Criminal Investigation and Interpol Directorate (Dijín) killed Naín Andrés Pérez Toncel, alias Naín or Bendito Menor, during Operation Centinela de la Patria. [1] The Colombian Institute of Legal Medicine confirmed on Friday that two minors were among 24 people killed during a military operation against FARC dissidents in Guaviare. [2] President Abelardo de la Espriella released a video showing white bags containing the bodies of combatants killed in a bombing by the Colombian public force. [3] Naín Andrés Pérez Toncel was a high-value criminal target linked to drug trafficking, extortion, and intimidation activities directed against communities in the Caribbean region of Colombia, specifically the department of La Guajira. [4] Senator Enrique Gómez of the Salvación Nacional party stated that criminal fugitives alias Calarcá and alias Iván Mordisco cannot sleep in the same place for more than two nights due to increased pressure. [5] Senator Enrique Gómez warned that the fugitives alias Calarcá and alias Iván Mordisco will likely attempt to seek refuge and protection in Venezuela, Brazil, and Ecuador. [6] A judge ordered the Colombian government to abstain from bombing targets of armed groups when there is information about a possible presence of minors, but the operation in Guaviare occurred before this judicial decision. [7] President Abelardo De la Espriella announced the operation four days prior, which was named 'Azarías' by the Military Forces and took place in the Lagos del Dorado area of Miraflores, Guaviare. [8] The Institute of Legal Medicine identified 20 of the 24 recovered bodies, stating that eight were female, twelve were male, and two were minors, while the other four bodies could not be identified due to their condition. [9] The author argues that exposing the corpses denies the dead dignity and their families respect, while aiming to sow terror among criminals. [10] The editorial claims that this action degrades public debate, potentiates violence, and causes ethical demands to disappear. [11] The editorial states this is the first time a Colombian National Government has proudly exposed an act of dehumanization that violates the dignity of the dead. [12]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Saturday, September 5, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world3 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
