[Colombia] Strategic developments: Other

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On April 17, 2025, suspected Rodrigo Cadete FARC dissidents reportedly distributed pamphlets near Cartagena Del Chaira in Colombia's Caqueta department, announcing an indefinite ban on fishing and hunting around the Caguan River. The non-violent action represents localized armed group control over natural resource access in a remote Amazonian region.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether similar restrictions spread to areas with greater economic significance. Local fishing and small-scale agriculture could face disruption if the ban is enforced, but broader supply chain implications remain limited given the remote location.

Watch points

• Monitor for independent confirmation of the fishing/hunting ban and evidence of enforcement actions by the dissident group
• Track whether similar resource access restrictions emerge in other FARC dissident-controlled territories across Colombia's southern departments
