What’s behind the forced disappearances in Ecuador?

Ecuador's government is intensifying its crackdown on drug trafficking, leading to a rise in forced disappearances among civilians. This alarming trend raises concerns about the safety and human rights of individuals caught in the crossfire of the government's anti-drug efforts.

The implications of these forced disappearances are significant, as they highlight the potential erosion of civil liberties and the increasing violence associated with drug-related conflicts, prompting urgent calls for accountability and protection of citizens' rights.
