Colombia suspends ceasefire with Marxist rebel group accused of killing 4
Fox News
Colombia's government on Monday announced the suspension of its ceasefire with parts of FARC-EMC after four people were reportedly killed by guerillas after refusing to join the group.
"If a bilateral ceasefire is not effective in protecting the life and integrity of the entire population in certain territories, then there is no point in persisting," the statement said.
The government said, however, that it will continue to maintain a cease-fire with FARC-EMC in other parts of the country where attacks on civilians have decreased, and said that it will soon appoint delegates who will lead peace talks with the rebel group.
