BOGOTA—Colombian police have confiscated 67 kg (148 pounds) of explosives from former FARC dissidents who planned to carry out a terrorist attack in the capital Bogota, the government said on Thursday.
Defense Minister Diego Molano said the attack was planned by leaders of dissident former members of the demobilized Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) terrorist group who rejected a 2016 peace deal with the government.
