In their boldest attack this year, suspected leftist rebels launched two bombs into an army garrison Monday, killing 10 soldiers and wounding more than 30.
Officials are investigating whether the bombs were mortar shells crafted from cooking gas canisters, or if the rebels have obtained more sophisticated arms, authorities said.
The bombs landed on a barracks full of sleeping soldiers and started a fire that detonated hand grenades stored inside.
Gen. Arcesio Barrero, commander of the army’s 4th Division, blamed the attack on the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, the biggest rebel group in Colombia.
