This was reported by the strategic operational commander of the FANB, G/J Domingo Hernández Lárez, who explained that in the aforementioned space the uniformed personnel detected and destroyed three 13.5 HP motorcycle bombs; a plastic container containing 220 liters of gasoline; a freezer; a cable television system (Directv); a 6-cylinder engine; two hydropneumatic hammers; 200 kilos of food; other logistic materials.
