Villavicencio, 59, a vocal critic of corruption and organised crime, was killed at the campaign event on Wednesday amid a surge in violence in the Andean nation blamed on drug traffickers. The armed forces as of this moment are mobilised throughout the national territory to guarantee the security of citizens, the tranquillity of the country and the free and democratic elections of August 20,” Lasso said on Thursday in an address broadcast on YouTube. www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/8/10/ecuador-presidential-candidate-villavicencio-killed-in-attack-news-reports
