Army planes bombed at an unspecified date positions of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) in the west-coast department of Chocó, killing four presumed FARC fighters and later confiscating arms and "abundant" quantities of ammunition, the newspapers El Espectador and El Tiempo reported on 12 June, citing the army. The army, navy and air force collaborated in the raid, thought to have destroyed a camp belonging to members of the Libardo García Mobile Column in the district of Docordó or Medio San Juan.
