Military operation with explosions at the former VW factory in Palmira

Some fifty soldiers are deployed at the former assembly plant of Julio César Lestido (former Volkswagen factory), in Nueva Palmira, as part of a military operations course. The population can hear salvo-type detonations when simulated ammunition and exercise grenades are used.

The military are in the third and final week of a course, the so-called “week of operations.” As a final activity, from the morning of Wednesday 11th until tomorrow Thursday, exercises are being carried out in the former VW plant, “to simulate different attack and defense tasks within this installation. Here, what the students are doing is basically simulating a defense of this installation,” and they are using “different techniques and life planning for the attack,” First Lieutenant Matías Abreu explained to EL ECO.

For the “tranquility of the population of Nueva Palmira, what is being used is the use of simulated ammunition, that is, they will hear salvo-type detonations, and exercise grenades, which are small fuses that simulate the detonation of a grenade,” he explained.

Tomorrow, Thursday, in the early hours of tomorrow, between 6 and 7, “we are resuming activities, to carry out what we call the final operation, it will be an assault on the former assembly plant, an operation that will last 30 minutes,” said Abreu. (More information in the print edition of EL ECO this Saturday, September 14).
