ELN sniper ambushes Colombian cops

This security camera footage shows a group of police officers in Rio de Oro, Colombia. A few seconds into the footage, they are attacked by a sniper, allegedly from ELN. Ejército de Liberación Nacional, or ELN, is a Communist guerilla organization that first began operating in 1964. They were directly influenced by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro, and have the aim of inspiring "revolution" among the lower classes in Colombia. Despite ongoing and sporadic peace talks, ELN has continued its policy of armed struggle to the present day, as seen here in a violent ambush on these very unprepared policemen.
