On 16 January 2025, National Liberation Army (ELN) militants launched several attacks in the Catatumbo region of Colombia, as part of the Catatumbo campaign. At least 100 people have been killed in the attacks, with others injured, kidnapped, and displaced.
Background
See also: Catatumbo campaignThe Catatumbo campaign has been an ongoing period of strategic violence between militia faction groups in the region since January 2018 and a part of the war on drugs; it was developed after a 2016 peace agreement between the country's government (under the presidency of Juan Manuel Santos) and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) as an attempt to end the Colombian conflict. The existence of the campaign was officially announced in August 2019 after a Human Rights Watch (HRW) investigation. Colombian media reports that the campaign has directly affected an estimated 145,000 people, with HRW estimating this at 300,000.
Attacks
The assaults were perpetrated by the ELN against the 33rd Front of the FARC dissidents, who remained in combat after the suspension of its operations as an armed group. Governor of Norte de Santander William Villamizar Laguado said that civilians were captured, about two dozen people had been injured, some 20,000 displaced in the outbreak of violence, and estimated that more than 80 people were killed. He described the resulting humanitarian situation as "alarming". According to a government report, among the victims are community leader Carmelo Guerrero and seven people who sought to sign a peace deal. Three people engaged in peace talks were reportedly kidnapped. ELN militants were allegedly killing civilians they accused of being collaborators of the FARC dissidents, kidnapping people from their homes and shooting them in the streets. Government forces were able to rescue dozens of civilians and evacuated them from the affected areas. On January 20, the death toll surpassed 100 following continued outbreaks of violence. On 21 January, the government officially declared a state of internal commotion and launched a military offensive against ELN guerillas.
Aftermath
Officials deployed over 5,000 troops throughout the region and prepared to send 10 tonnes (9.8 long tons; 11 short tons) of food and hygiene kits to displaced people in the communities of Ocaña and Tibú. Colombia's army rescued and evacuated dozens of people and animals using helicopters.
As of January 20, about 19,800 people were displaced, of which 11,000 fled to the city of Cúcuta.
On January 20, a state of emergency was declared by Colombian president Gustavo Petro in the Catatumbo region.
The Office of the Inspector General of Colombia reported that around 46,000 children have not been able to begin the academic year due to the violence and that about 35% of the displaced population are under 18.
Reactions
Domestic
On January 17, President of Colombia Gustavo Petro suspended peace talks with the group as a result of the attacks. The government demanded that the ELN cease all attacks and allow authorities to enter the region and provide humanitarian aid. In response to the ELN clashes, he stated the group has "chosen the path of war, and a war they will have".
On January 18, the city of Ocaña enabled the city's coliseum to receive internally displaced persons and called for the national government to declare a state of emergency to address the conflict.
On January 20, Petro announced plans to declare a state of economic emergency and a state of domestic commotion which provides the executive branch extraordinary capacities to reestablish public order in the region. The Government of the Cesar Department sent humanitarian aid to the towns of González and Río de Oro, which border the Catatumbo region, anticipating the arrival of refugees. In addition, the Mayor of Cúcuta, Jorge Acevedo said that over 11,000 internally displaced persons have arrived at the city since the start of the conflict and requested further assistance from the national government. On January 19, Cúcuta's Estadio General Santander was repurposed to receive refugees.
On January 20, officials from Bucaramanga announced that they would evaluate establishing temporary camps for possible refugees. Officials also said they would send humanitarian aid to the Catatumbo region.
The Colombian energy company Ecopetrol said that it would restrict work and movement at the Tibu oil field and the Sardinata gas plant in Catatumbo.
International
On January 19, the Ministry of Interior of Venezuela said it has assisted 812 refugees in the border town of Jesús María Semprún, in Zulia State.
