Videos circulate online showing the destroyed bodies of Farc members lying in a rural area after combat with ELN members.

The head of the 28th front of the Farc dissidents, A.M, would have died in the combat between a combat between Farc and the ELN, in a rural area of the state of Apure, in Venezuela.

Information obtained by a newspaper indicates that "A.M." would have died last Tuesday in La Victoria, where the fighting took place in the El Ripial, Los Arenales and La Ossa sites, and from where the inhabitants reported "explosions and bursts of rifle shots ”.

From the Eighth Division of the Army they expressed that they are trying to confirm the information, but it has been difficult because the event occurred in Venezuelan territory.

More than 19 years of experience in the war. He joined the Farc at the Antonio Nariño front in 2002, and from there he went in 2005 to the “Bladimir Estiven” mobile front of the Eastern Bloc. He was also part of the "José María Córdova" Front.

Four years later, "A.M." was captured by the authorities. He remained in prison and in 2017 in the Justice and Peace court of Bogotá he was granted freedom. He submitted to the JEP, but his trail was lost. However, Military Intelligence followed his trail because he was wounded in a combat in 2019, but he slipped away in the jungle.

In 2018, he reappeared as the top leader of the Farc Front 28 dissidence in Casanare, asking for the war fee (extortion) from merchants. From there he became more visible, but the upsurge of the armed conflict in Arauca at the end of 2021 and the beginning of this 2022, put him in evidence again and it became known that he is waging a war with the Eln.

A.M. was one of the commanders who likes to take paid women and whiskey to the camps. In addition, part of his strategy to strengthen his armed group is to go from house to house asking for the quota for the war, which consists of each family giving him money for the "revolution."
