10 OCT 26 #ECUADOR⛴️'THE GOVERNMENT'S LIE- "The regime's warmongering narrative has once again been rejected by the courts. An Ecuadorian judge acquitted 32 fishermen from the vessels

Conquista 2 and María Candelaria—two of the boats bombed and sunk on the high seas by U.S. military forces with the endorsement of the national government.

Although Interior Minister John Reimberg publicly justified the interceptions and—in the court of public opinion—branded the crew members as direct collaborators with drug trafficking and criminal gangs,

The Prosecutor's Office failed to present a single piece of concrete evidence regarding illicit association or illegal activities to substantiate the charges.

The ruling exposes the recklessness with which Carondelet applauds the destruction of domestic vessels and criminalizes innocent citizens simply to fuel its war propaganda."
