Dozens of former FARC fighters abandon 'reincorporation' village in Colombia after death threats

Dozens of former guerrilla fighters and their families have been forced to abandon their village in southern Colombia after receiving death threats from a rebel group that is still fighting the government. On Tuesday more than 80 people, including former fighters, their children and their spouses, left Miravalle for another village — also inhabited by former FARC fighters — 200 km to the south. They carried their animals and their belongings in a caravan that was organized by Colombia’s government. The displaced former fighters were members of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, the guerrilla group that signed a peace deal with Colombia’s government in 2016.
