Middle East

 Iran denounces attacks by the United States and Israel on its energy facilities even though President Trump said he would not do it, and responds with force. As retaliation, Iran launched a missile at Tel Aviv, leaving at least nine people dead, and continues keeping the Strait of Hormuz closed. 

Argentina

Today, March 24, marks 50 years since the coup that installed a dictatorship in Argentina, which left 30,000 Argentines disappeared. The date is commemorated with massive marches, rejecting the state terrorism imposed by the dictatorship, while strong criticism is directed at the pro-United States, far-right President Javier Milley, for his denialism and revisionism. 

Colombia

In Colombia, authorities ruled out the possibility of an attack in the plane crash that left 64 dead and 60 injured, when a Colombian Air Force Hercules aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff in Putumayo, in the south of the country, with 125 people on board, all military personnel.
