At Least Eight Killed in Armed Attack in Ecuador’s Guayaquil
- On Tuesday, at least eight individuals lost their lives in two separate shootings in Guayaquil, a city located on Ecuador’s southwestern coast.
- These attacks occurred following an escalation of violence after President Daniel Noboa announced in January 2024 that the country was facing an armed internal conflict with organized crime groups.
- The shootings occurred in the Pascuales district along the Daule highway outside a municipal market as vendors began their day, including five motorcycle taxi drivers.
- Police reported that eight individuals died from gunfire and indicated the recent increase in violence might be connected to the confiscation of four assault rifles during the past weekend.
- Authorities rapidly dispatched officers to identify and apprehend the perpetrators amid Guayaquil's ongoing state of emergency, which has been in place since April due to persistent security issues.
