Colombia President Iván Duque's helicopter hit by gunfire
Gunfire has hit a helicopter carrying the president of Colombia as it flew near the border with Venezuela.
President Iván Duque was flying toward Cúcuta in the Norte de Santander province, alongside the defence minister, interior minister, and the province's governor. A spokesman for the presidency said nobody was hurt in the incident.
Mr Duque denounced the "cowardly attack" and said he was not frightened "by violence or acts of terrorism".
"Our state is strong and Colombia is strong to confront this kind of threat," he said in a video address posted on Twitter. Security forces are under orders to find those responsible, he added.
Earlier this month the ELN denied any involvement in a car bomb attack on a military base in Cúcuta. The attack injured 36 people, including two US military advisers.
