In 2018, EFF along with researchers from Lookout Security published a report describing the Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) we dubbed "Dark Caracal."
Now we have uncovered a new Dark Caracal campaign operating since March of 2022, with hundreds of infections across more than a dozen countries. In this report we will present evidence that the cyber mercenary group Dark Caracal is still active and continues to be focused on Latin America, as was reported last year. We have discovered that Dark Caracal, using the Bandook spyware, is currently infecting over 700 computers in Central and South America, primarily in The Dominican Republic and Venezuela. #DarkCaracal #Bandook #Lebanon #LatinAmerica #EFF #Lookout
Who killed Ecuador's Fernando Villavicencio? | Invidious
The Grayzone presents a documentary investigation into the career and killing of Fernando Villavicencio, the late Ecuadorian presidential candidate and former President of the Commission of Fiscalization and Political Control of the National Assembly of Ecuador.
Days after proclaiming that Ecuador had been "kidnapped by the mafias," Villavicencio was assassinated at close range by a gunman allegedly hired by the narco gangs he had vowed to destroy. Our investigation raises new questions about police and high-level political involvement in the killing, while examining its impact on the country's August 24th national election.

Trump’s Cuba blockade is slow #genocide
Ecuadorian journalist Esteban Carrillo from the Cradle tore into #US war on #Cuba, warning that Trump’s blockade has pushed the island into a deepening humanitarian catastrophe.
“We saw the infant mortality rate spike since the start of Donald Trump’s blockade,” Carrillo said.
Not just gas. Not just buses. Not just blackouts.
A whole population is being strangled — then Washington shows up offering “aid” for the crisis it created.
Carrillo said this is the same imperial playbook across Latin America: crush those who refuse to obey, redraw alliances, and drive out foreign influence that Washington doesn’t control.
“Everything… in Latin America [is] with the aim of persecuting those who oppose the imperialist project.”
Trump smiles with Xi, talks friendship — then runs back to the #MonroeDoctrine to choke #China out of #LatinAmerica.

🇺🇸🇧🇴BREAKING: US armed forces & Bolivian police are preparing a joint operation to kidnap Evo Morales and massacre the indigenous communities in the vicinity.
Police officers opposed to the plan have leaked documents confirming the operation.
Thousands of union workers have surrounded #EvoMorales' rural residence to protect him. The documents acknowledge this and confirm that they will launch the armed assault regardless, they're already referring to protesters as "human shields".-Ollie Vargas
Israel aims to eradicate Resistance in West Asia, Washington aims to eradicate it in #LatinAmerica.
In both regions, the only resistance left is in the indigenous peoples of the land.
Beyond neocolonialism, this is ethnic cleansing and genocide for total power over resources.

🇧🇴Evo Morales: The North American empire not only wants to eliminate me physically, it wants to invade Bolivia to seize its natural resources like #lithium. We hold the world's largest reserves of that metal.
Foreign mercenaries and pirates have already begun to act in coordination with the government of Rodrigo Paz and his right-wing allies.
As always, their first attacks are lies and insults. They invent pretexts to invade with violence, massacre the people, and plunder our wealth.

❗️🗣😈🚢⚓️😵💫PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN NEWS:
In this document from February 2026, it is clearly stated that the United States is becoming a "pirate country": the capture of ships and their crews in international waters is legitimized, with the aim of appropriating their goods and doing whatever they please with the vessels. Many people are unaware that, at present, there are three active maritime blockades: one in the Strait of #Hormuz, another in the North Atlantic Ocean, from #Greenland to #Iceland, and a third in the Caribbean ( #Cuba) and the #Pacific, covering a large part of #Africa and South America.(#LatinAmerica)
