A bomb attack at a maximum security prison in Guayaquil, in the southwestern part of Ecuador, was prevented yesterday by the police, neutralizing a drone carrying explosives on the roof of the penitentiary.
A video released by the Ministry of the Interior shows the moment police remotely detonate the drone spotted on the roof of a wing of La Roca (“The Rock”) prison, one of the best guarded in the entire country. A small black container was attached below the drone.
The controlled explosion destroyed part of the roof of the building, which had been evacuated earlier, and there were no injuries.
Notorious thug Adolfo Masias, leader of the Los Choneros gang, has been transferred to this maximum security prison.
Some of Ecuador’s prisons have become centers of gang operations, fighting for power and control of the drug trade. Since February 2021, at least 430 inmates have been murdered inside the country’s prisons.
