Shot Colombian presidential candidate survives emergency surgery

Miguel Uribe, a prominent Colombian presidential candidate and political icon, survived a deadly attack at a campaign event in Bogotá but remains in critical condition following surgery. The suspect, believed to be 15 years old, was detained along with two others injured in the attack during a struggle. Colombia’s defense minister promised an investigation into the attack linked to violence against Uribe, a vocal opponent of President Gustavo Petro, who offered condolences and stated his hope for Uribe’s recovery. The incident comes amid growing tensions over U.S.-Colombian relations following the migrant deportation flights.
