Al-Qassam: To our free prisoners: Gaza, its Resistance, have given their most precious possessions, have striven with all their might to break your chains; we pledge that your cause will remain at the top of our national priorities until you are all freed.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Instead its army killed dozens of them as a result of its failed policy of military pressure.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Nazi occupation could have recovered most of its captives alive many months ago, but it kept stalling and acting arrogantly.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Enemy has submitted and is now retrieving its captives through a prisoner exchange deal, just as the Resistance had promised from the very beginning.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Enemy has failed to recover its captives through military pressure, despite its intelligence superiority and surplus of power.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Enemy thwarted all efforts due to its narrow calculations and to satisfy the savage and vengeful instincts of its Nazi government.
Al-Qassam Brigades: Resistance has always been keen to stop the war of extermination and has pursued this goal since early months of war.
Al-Qassam Brigades: We announce our commitment to the agreement and to the timelines associated with it, as long as the occupation abides by them.
Statement by Hamas' Al-Qassam Brigades: The agreement that has been reached is the fruit of our people’s steadfastness and the resilience of our resistance fighters.

CNN cited Jaime Gomez, director of the risk management agency of Antioquia (Dagran), as saying, "This situation once again fills us with sadness. Last Monday, we emphasized that these events will continue to occur, and we cannot avoid them because they are natural phenomena, but we can avoid loss of life."

Gomez explained that "we're in the rainy season, so people who live or have activities on the banks of rivers mustn't be near these tributaries."

"Risk management is an issue of co-responsibility of all Colombians, and it depends on all of us to do what we can to protect life," he indicated.

Reuters noted that landslides are common in Colombia due to frequent rains and poor infrastructure.

It is noteworthy that in early February, 15 people died and 35 others were injured in a mudslide in the city of Pereira.
