Two attacks allegedly carried out by the leftist Colombian rebel group FARC have left 16 members of Colombia's armed forces dead, the country's RCN broadcaster said Sunday, according to DPA. The worst of the two attacks came one day after representatives of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) suspended peace talks with the Colombian government in Havana to evaluate a proposal calling for a referendum on a peace agreement. The attacks occurred in the north-eastern region of Arauca when a group of 30 soldiers entered a house to rest. The house had been booby-trapped with bombs, RCN reported. Fourteen soldiers were killed and nine were wounded in the explosion.
