The grief over the loss of Alejandro Carranza, the Colombian fisherman killed in a US bombing raid on a small fishing boat in the Caribbean Sea, has transformed into a direct appeal to President Donald Trump. In a heartbreaking testimony, Carranza's father asked the White House occupant to stop these kinds of attacks that claim the lives of innocent civilians.
"Let them see, let them stop bombing innocent people, especially the fishermen who are heading there," the man said, adding that now the fishermen are afraid to go out to sea: "Now you can't even go 10 miles out because you'll be bombarded immediately." . "
The family member described Alejandro Carranza as a central figure in their home: “He was the right-hand man of the house for everyone. With him, we never lacked anything here .” Despite reports indicating that Alejandro Carranza died in the attack, his father still holds out hope, stating that, while the official version points to his death, they want "to see a sample to see if he is dead or alive."
The man also expressed his hope that the Colombian president would help them in their situation. "I'm asking the president to help us with this, to see how far we can go, to see if he can help us with something, even if it's just with a body."
The case of Alejandro Carranza has brought security in the Caribbean into sharp focus , with relatives in Santa Marta and La Guajira claiming that the boat was flying the Colombian flag and was adrift due to mechanical failures before being attacked, contradicting the version of the US government that presented the operation as a blow against drug traffickers.
