President Daniel Noboa’s convoy was swarmed by about 500 people and stoned on the way to an event in Cañar. His vehicle suffered bullet holes, yet Noboa was unharmed. Five suspects linked to attempted murder have been arrested amid ongoing protests over subsidy cuts and austerity.
This is the second recent attack on Noboa’s convoy, highlighting Ecuador’s struggle with crime and social unrest under his leadership since 2023.
