Hundreds of Colombians gathered on June 15, both inside and outside the country, to march for peace and the recovery of presidential candidate and Senator Miguel Uribe Turbay, who was seriously injured in an attempted assassination on June 7 in Bogotá.

The “March of Silence,” called by Colombian presidential candidates and congressmen, took place in 30 cities in Colombia and several cities in the United States, including Miami, Weston, Orlando, Houston, Los Angeles, New Jersey, and New York.
