Colombia's government is offering a $700,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of four leaders of the ELN rebel group. This follows a violent conflict in the coca-growing Catatumbo region bordering Venezuela, where at least 80 people have been killed and 40,000 displaced over 10 days. President Gustavo Petro has emergency powers to restore order amid the clash between the ELN and FARC dissidents.
