“Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa has survived an alleged assassination attempt in an attack on his motorcade by hundreds of protesters. Demonstrators were filmed throwing large rocks at Mr Noboa’s vehicle, which his government says was also shot at while he was passing through the town of El Tambo. Five people have been detained over the attack, and Mr Noboa’s office says those arrested would be processed under charges of terrorism and attempted assassination.” (10/08/25)
