Chocó: Colombia’s Hidden Region Faces Devastation Amid Ongoing Violence
Situated in one of Colombia’s most impoverished and neglected areas, Chocó has become a focal point of turmoil following a recent earthquake. This region, frequently plagued by conflicts between armed groups, remains shrouded in uncertainty regarding the extent of the damage.
Due to significant communication breakdowns, information about the impact of the earthquake in Chocó is scarce. The lack of infrastructure exacerbates the challenges faced by local communities, already struggling with the presence of narco-traffickers and guerrilla factions.
