Causing more than 25 deaths and serious material damage, it has also affected at least seven airports, according to the Civil Aeronautics (Aerocivil), which in a second statement added the Alfonso Bonilla Aragón airport in Cali, to the six it had already notified: those in Pereira, Manizales, Quibdó, Armenia, Cartago and Buenaventura. “For safety reasons, air operations at these terminals remain suspended until structural damage to the infrastructure is assessed,” the agency said.
