 MEXICO CITY (AP) - About 100 university students demonstrated outside the Colombian Embassy in Mexico City on Wednesday to demand their government formally condemn Colombia's attack on a rebel camp in Ecuador, which apparently killed four Mexican students.
With chants of "Your death will be avenged!" students demanded Mexico break off diplomatic ties with Colombia, launch a criminal case against the South American nation for the students' disappearance and ask for compensation for their families.
The March 1 attack on the jungle camp of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, killed top rebel leader Raul Reyes and 24 others and briefly triggered a diplomatic crisis in which Ecuador and Venezuela sent troops to their Colombian borders. The missing students had attended a pro-FARC conference in Ecuador's capital before traveling to the camp.
