Street war in Ecuador: executions of officials and indulgences for security forces

[REGNUM] For several days now, the small South American country has been making waves all over the world: criminal gangs have actually entered into a war with the government of Ecuador, staging terrorist attacks and riots throughout the country. Local security forces are also no strangers - they received an order to eliminate the bandits, as well as a full pardon for their actions in detaining those who are potentially considered members of an organized crime group. By January 11, the number of possible victims of the Ecuadorian events, according to official data, barely exceeded 20 people. As for the number of liquidated criminals, local authorities prefer not to throw around numbers for now.
Hopefully it is a nice round number that translates as lots.
Some experts are seriously betting on whether the new President Daniel Noboa will pass such a test. True, some nuances make us think that what is happening in the capital of Quito and other Ecuadorian cities is not at all a test for the team of the new president. On the contrary, it is an opportunity.
