Colombia has been rocked by a month of bloody street protests in which dozens have died. Anger at a proposal to raise taxes on the middle class has morphed into a major anti-government movement.
A timeline:
Thousands protest
Tens of thousands of people marched on 28 April against a tax reform they say will leave them poorer as the country battles its deadliest phase of the pandemic.
Right-wing president Ivan Duque's government wants to tax those earning more than $656 a month, lowering the threshold from $1 000 to broaden the tax base.
Two days later, troops are sent out to patrol the streets of Cali, Colombia's third-biggest city and the epicenter of the unrest.
Duque gives in to pressure from the streets and says he will scrap his plans to lower the tax threshold and increase value-added tax on goods and services.
But tens of thousands of Colombians take to the streets for a fourth straight day.
Duque says he will use "military assistance" to combat "those who through violence, vandalism and terrorism seek to intimidate society."
