Gulf Clan Drug Cartel Attacks Colombian Military Unit, 1 Soldier Killed

President Gustavo Petro's 'total peace' plan faces challenges as peace talks with the Gulf Clan falter.

One soldier was killed and 12 were injured in an attack on a military unit in Turbo, Colombia, which the army has attributed to the Gulf Clan drug cartel.
The Gulf Clan is considered by authorities to be the country's largest active drug cartel.
The governor of Antioquia, where Turbo is located, has offered a reward of almost $12,800 for information leading to the capture of the leader of the faction responsible for the attack, identified as Wilder de Jesús Alcaraz, alias 'El Indio.'
President Gustavo Petro has been trying to establish a 'total peace' plan in Colombia by negotiating peace agreements with all armed groups, including the Gulf Clan.
Last year, the government and the Gulf Clan agreed to a cease-fire, but talks were halted after the cartel was accused of being behind attacks during a mining protest.
