The Latin American Herald Tribune has reported that Colombian police and army troops found and destroyed two refineries used by the FARC to process stolen oil.
This story caught my eye because I've never heard of the FARC using oil refineries, but it's certainly something that makes sense.
The refineries could produce up to 11 gallons of fuel an hour, and were reportedly under the control of the 29th Front.
Authorities seized 1,849 gallons of fuel and 11 steel drums, each able to hold about a barrel of crude oil.
These illegal refineries were found in the Nariño department, on the border with Ecuador.
