Colombia Ombudsman: Earthquake Worsened Pre-Existing Inequalities

Colombia's Ombudsman (Defensoría del Pueblo) presented three key points to the national government to address the crisis following an earthquake, highlighting that the disaster deepened pre-existing inequalities. The specific location and magnitude of the earthquake are not stated, and the details of the proposed measures remain unclear.
