Colombia kills 12 leftist rebels in attack

Colombia's armed forces killed 12 leftist guerrillas on Tuesday in an early morning raid on rebels in a northwestern mountainous region of the Andean nation, President Alvaro Uribe said. 

 

"Today at four in the morning after a great action by intelligence and the Colombian air forces, 12 bandits were killed and six captured," Uribe told reporters. He said FARC guerrilla leaders had sent rebels to retake an area between Sucre and Bolivar states, about 360 miles (580 km) from the Colombian capital Bogota. (Reuters)
