Two distinct explosive events have been reported internationally, resulting in casualties and property damage. In Colombia, a pre-dawn truck explosion occurred outside a police base. The blast caused significant structural damage, including shattered windows and destruction of the building’s roofing. Reports indicate that 11 people sustained injuries, and a dog was killed in the incident. Officials have characterized the event as a terrorist attack.

Official reports state that at least three people were killed and 15 others were injured, with the severity of the wounds varying.
