Five dead, 36 injured in bomb attack on Colombia air base

- Eyewitnesses say civilians among dead, many homes damaged.
- Explosion causes panic on busy Cali street near air base.
- Regional governor says terrorism will not defeat us.
Five people were killed and dozens were injured when a vehicle bomb targeted a military base on a busy street in the Colombian city of Cali on Thursday, local authorities said.
Police said the bomb had targeted the Marco Fidel Suárez Military Aviation School.
“There was a thunderous sound of something exploding near the air base,” 65-year-old eyewitness Hector Fabio Bolanos told AFP.
“There were so many injured people,” he said. “Many houses were damaged in front of the base.”
Several buildings and a school were evacuated.
Cali mayor Alejandro Eder said preliminary reports indicated at least five people were killed and 36 people were injured.
He announced a ban on large trucks entering the city, fearing further explosions.
Eyewitness Alexis Atizabal, 40, indicated that civilians may be among the dead.
“There were fatalities among people passing by on the avenue,” he said.
It was not immediately clear who was responsible, but regional governor Dilian Francisca Toro called it a “terrorist attack.”
“Terrorism will not defeat us,” she said.
In June, leftist guerrillas claimed responsibility for a wave of bomb and gun attacks in and around Cali that killed seven people.
The group, the Central General Staff (EMC), rejected a 2016 peace deal and has upped operations ahead of elections in 2026.

US-Israeli ‘regime change’ project in Iran ‘impossible mission’: FM Araghchi

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Saturday that “regime change” in the Islamic Republic of Iran is an “impossible mission.”
He made the remarks in an interview with American satellite broadcaster NBC News, hours after the Israeli regime and the United States launched another unprovoked war of aggression against the country.
The aggression came in the middle of indirect nuclear talks between Tehran and Washington, mediated by the Omani government, with Araghchi leading the Iranian side.
Iran’s top diplomat said the Islamic Republic is a “great nation with a magnificent civilization” that has endured for thousands of years.
“We know how to defend ourselves and we will survive,” he told the US news channel, adding that the moment the aggression stops, Iran will also stop defending itself.
The Israeli regime and the United States carried out fresh aggression against Iran early on Saturday, targeting multiple cities, including the capital, Tehran.
Many casualties are feared, most of them civilians, including children.
Iranian armed forces responded with coordinated retaliatory operations, targeting multiple military and intelligence sites in the occupied territories as well as US military bases scattered across the Persian Gulf region.
Iran had previously warned the Persian Gulf countries against allowing their soil to be used in any act of aggression against the country.
Araghchi said he had been in contact with his counterparts from the Persian Gulf countries and explained that Iran does not intend to attack them, rather, the attacks on US bases in the region are a “defensive measure.”
“We could not simply sit back and watch,” Iran’s foreign minister asserted.
He dismissed the rumors about the assassination of top Iranian government officials or military commanders, saying they are all “safe and alive.”
Araghchi also questioned the US rationale of engaging in diplomacy and then attacking in the middle of talks, especially when they had made “big progress” in the recent round of talks held in Geneva on Thursday.
