FANB Neutralizes Explosives Planted by Colombian Terrorists in Apure School
The Bolivarian National Armed Force (FANB) of Venezuela neutralized explosives that were planted by Colombian terrorists at different locations in the Venezuelan state of Apure, including in a school. This was informed by the head of the Operational Strategic Command of the Bolivarian National Armed Force (CEOFANB), Domingo HernĂĄndez LĂĄrez, who reported that a total of six explosive cylinders were deactivated, one of them found at the entrance of the Los Arenales Elementary School in the Arauca sector of Apure state, close to the border with Colombia.
This was part of the 2022 Bolivarian Shield Operation that the FANB is carrying out throughout Venezuela, to put an end to the presence of the Colombian Armed Terrorist and Drug Trafficking groups (TANCOL).
“Sick mind and corrupted soul!” wrote General HernĂĄndez LĂĄrez on Twitter, after reporting on the neutralization of explosives. “The degradation of the TANCOL is such that they even place booby traps in schools in order to impose their reign in the area inciting terror and fear among the inhabitants! They will be tracked down and execrated from our native soil by the FANB.”
