Ecuadorian prosecutors released a man rescued after a U.S. military strike on a semi-submersible in the Caribbean, concluding he committed no crime on Ecuador’s territory, an official said. Identified by The Associated Press as Andrés Fernando Tufiño, he was medically evaluated and is in good health. The Trump administration repatriated two survivors—one to Ecuador, one to Colombia—after the attack, which killed two people. Colombia’s interior minister said the other survivor, Jeison Obando Pérez, 34, remains hospitalized with brain trauma and will be processed for drug trafficking. The policy’s legality is hotly disputed by legal specialists.
