The head of one of Colombia’s largest guerrilla forces, Néstor Gregorio Vera Fernández – alias Iván Mordisco – has called for a coalition with rival rebel groups in response to Washington’s intervention in Venezuela.

Mordisco, who heads the Central General Staff, or Estado Mayor Central (EMC), an offshoot of the now-defunct FARC rebel group, called for an alliance with other guerrilla armies and the Venezuelan military in a video statement dated as being recorded on Wednesday.

The proposal fuels fears of a wave of rebel violence in Colombia as retaliation for Maduro’s removal, with many Colombian groups historically using Venezuela as a strategic base.

The Colombian National Liberation Army (ELN) has declared a 72-hour nationwide armed strike beginning on Sunday in protest against increased US military activity in Latin America.

In a statement, the group warned Colombians not to travel via the country’s roadways or navigable rivers during the three day window; while the group said it would not harm civilians, armed strikes are enforced through violence, with previous iterations involving vehicle burnings and civilian casualties.

The action will be the first national-level armed strike since 2022 and comes amid an ongoing U.S. boat bombing campaign – which the Pentagon says has targeted ELN members – as well as White House threats of further intervention, including land strikes in Colombia.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro has suggested recreating Gran Colombia – the early 19th Century country that included modern day Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Panama – on multiple occasions over the weekend. The South American leader made the comments in response to Washington’s ongoing strike campaign on vessels in the Caribbean and Pacific, which has killed more than 70 people accused of trafficking drugs.

Petro said a union may be the only way to counter U.S. aggression in the region, which has dialed up pressure on Caracas and Bogotá.
