As "Israel" continues its genocide in Gaza for almost 11 months, Colombia's President Gustavo Petro has signed a decree earlier this week, officially banning coal exports to the occupation entity.

The decree, dated August 14 was published on the presidential website.

Last May, the Colombian President announced cutting ties with "Israel" for having a "genocidal" president".

Petro later announced in June the suspension of coal exports to the occupation entity.

In a social media post then, he stated that exports would cease "until the genocide is stopped."
