The National Liberation Army (ELN) has officially denied publishing a statement purportedly endorsing Colombian Senator Iván Cepeda. A fabricated image circulated online claiming the guerrilla group’s support, prompting the ELN’s peace negotiation delegation to issue a denial. The statement did not appear on any of the ELN’s official communication channels. This denial comes amidst ongoing peace talks between the Colombian government and the ELN. The origin and intent behind the false statement remain unclear. Authorities are investigating the source of the disinformation campaign. This incident highlights the potential for misinformation to disrupt the peace process.
