SemanaIndependentProgressiveFactual 90Objective 657 days ago Rodrigo Lara brakes Petro dry after assuring that they are "killing survivors" under the rubble: "A vulgarity"The former president Gustavo Petro sparked controversy by accusing the current administration of potentially killing survivors under rubble after a major earthquake struck Colombia on August 10. Petro claimed that rescue workers were being replaced by Israeli machinery and criticized the mayor of Pereira for hindering rescue efforts.

SemanaIndependentProgressiveFactual 85Objective 708 days ago Congressman Duvalier Sánchez receives harsh criticism for "disrupting" rescue efforts after earthquake in ColombiaThe article reports on criticism directed at Colombian Congressman Duvalier Sánchez following his actions during rescue operations after a recent earthquake. Sánchez, a member of the Green Party, was seen using a megaphone outside the University Hospital of Valle, where he criticized the national government's handling of the crisis.
