AFP presents a visual story of 84 photographs by Luis Acosta, taken on April 18 and 19, 2026, on the violence affecting the paradisiacal Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia. At first glance, it appears to be a postcard-perfect tourist jewel, with crystal-clear Caribbean waters and mountains crowned by snowcapped peaks. But beneath the surface of Colombias idyllic destination, paramilitary violence keeps shopkeepers and Indigenous communities living in fear. In the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, tourists roam unaware of camouflaged squads monitoring them from close range, extorting nearby businesses and spreading terror among Indigenous communities, whose ancestral knowledge has been recognized by UNESCO as part of the worlds cultural heritage.

TOPSHOT - An ambulance boat carrying crew members wearing hazmat suits, approaches the pilot door on the starboard side of the cruise ship MV Hondius, while stationary off the port of Praia, the capital of Cape Verde, on May 5, 2026 as passengers look on from the bridges. Two seriously ill crew members on a cruise ship stricken by a deadly hantavirus outbreak will be evacuated via Cape Verde to the Netherlands, allowing the vessel to sail on to Spain's Canary Islands, the ship operator said Tuesday. The MV Hondius has been at the centre of an international health scare since Saturday, when WHO was informed that the rare disease -- usually spread from infected rodents typically through urine, droppings and saliva -- was suspected of being behind the deaths of three of its passengers. As others fell ill, passengers and crew have been in isolation after Cape Verde authorities barred the ship from docking, and as health authorities scrambled to find a port that would take the Hondius.
