Three unauthorized runways were disabled through operations carried out by agents of the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB) in Guárico and Amazonas, according to military sources.
Two of those tracks were in the Altamira farmhouse, Santa María de Ipire municipality, Guárico. One of them had an extension of 1,000 meters long by 40 wide; while the other measured 600 long by fifteen wide.
The tracks were used by criminal groups dedicated to drug trafficking.
The other procedure was performed in the municipality of Autana, locality of Mavaca, Amazonas. A military commission went to the site in a boat under the command of Division General José Maita González, commander of the Comprehensive Defense Operational Zone (ZODI) 63.
The commission located and disabled a runway on the banks of the Autana and Sipapo rivers, which was used by Tancol groups (Armed Terrorists, Colombian Drug Traffickers).
Indigenous communities Pendare, Boca de Autana and Mavaca warned of irregular movements in that area.
At the site they found 560 liters of jet fuel, as well as a disassembled engine, parts and pieces belonging to an aircraft.
