Ecuador: President Noboa survives assassination attempt via poisoned gifts

Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa survived an unprecedented assassination attempt after it was discovered that the gifts he received, which appeared innocent like jam and chocolate, were contaminated with deadly chemicals.

This incident comes amid a series of threats faced by the president during the same month, including homemade rockets, Molotov cocktails, and stone-throwing at his car, amid direct warnings that any hit from these rockets could be fatal.

Noboa is known for his strict approach to fighting crime, making him a target for both criminal groups and political critics alike. Tensions have escalated under his controversial policies, including raising diesel prices and his plans to establish foreign military bases in the country.

The recent incident shows that danger can hide in the simplest things, as simple gifts turned into a direct threat to the life of the head of state, leaving Ecuador on the brink of conspiracies and political conflicts.
