In Guaviare province, Colombia, six children were killed during an airstrike targeting the FARC-EMC rebel group, known for using minors as soldiers. Iris Marín, Colombia's human rights ombudswoman, highlighted the obligation for all parties to comply with international humanitarian law, asserting no children should be harmed. President Gustavo Petro expressed deep regret for the loss of life, particularly of minors, but defended the airstrike as necessary to prevent ambushes on military personnel.
