Helmet Cam footage, reportedly recorded in 2021, shows Colombian jungle commandos inserting into a hostile area while the UH-60L Blackhawk door gunners suppress and chew up suspected enemy locations with miniguns.
Ever a conflict zone, Colombia's murder rate did drop following the government's 2016 peace deal with the FARC.

Instability in neighboring Venezuela has also allowed for criminal organizations to establish cross border safe havens.
