Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Colombia Rocked by Deadly Car Bomb and Drone Attacks
Caption: Colombia Rocked by Deadly Car Bomb and Drone Attacks. At least five people have been killed and dozens injured after a car bomb exploded near the Marco Fidel Suarez Military Aviation School in Cali, Colombia. The blast damaged nearby homes and forced evacuations of schools and other buildings, while authorities launched an investigation and offered a reward for information on those responsible. Earlier on Thursday, a police helicopter outside Medellín was struck by a drone while on a mission to destroy coca crops, crashing to the ground and killing at least 12 people, including officers. Officials say both attacks were carried out by dissident groups linked to the former Farc guerrilla movement. Colombia has seen a surge in violence recently, with clashes involving armed groups, paramilitaries, and drug cartels. Drone attacks have become increasingly frequent, with over 100 recorded across the country last year alone. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
