The soldiers of the 4th Field Artillery Battalion of the Fourth Brigade continue their decisive actions in the village of Travesías, municipality of Briceño, Antioquia, where our troops once again neutralized a criminal act against the civilian population and the Public Force. In this operation, an improvised explosive device, apparently planted by the GAO-r Structure 36, under the command of alias Primo Gay, was located and destroyed. This operational result prevents potential harm to the territory and safeguards the well-being of its inhabitants, reaffirming our troops' commitment to the security and stability of the region. #HomelandHonorLoyalty #OurCommitmentIs🇨🇴
