The murder of five youngsters as they were staying at a farm in Buga, Valle del Cauca, as well as the deaths of 14 civic leaders and environmentalist Gonzalo Cardona, makes January the most violent month in Colombia since the signing of the 2016 peace accord with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) guerrilla.
According to the Special Justice Tribunal (JEP), a massacre is being committed every four days in the country and four years into the post-conflict. JEP signaled the proliferation of illegal armed groups, among them the National Liberation Army (ELN) guerrilla, Gulf Clan, and FARC dissidents for perpetrating the majority of these crimes.
