15 mentioned several times that there were guerrillas among the civilians who were leaving the village, and for that reason one of them insistently suggested firing rockets in front of the moving vehicle that was carrying the wounded.” 47 65. In that respect, the versions of several survivors and witnesses concur that they were attacked after the explosion of the cluster bomb, which prevented them from immediately moving the wounded. In that connection, it is worth noting the following statements of persons who were wounded in and/or survived the bombardment: María Panqueva stated, […] I could not help [the wounded] because I was wounded myself, and then suddenly a truck appeared and got us out, just lying in the back. And after that, as we were driving away, they shot at us from either side of the road, and they followed us for about two kilometers. And then they got us out and more dead and wounded people were left. 48 Nilsan Díaz Herrera stated, […] those who were still alive dragged away the wounded to get them out any way they could. I was leaving the village and when they saw me running away with my 12-year-old son they fired at us all along the edge of the embankment that leads to the savannah. I hid among the trees to escape and avoid being killed. I had the idea of taking off my shirt, so that they could not see me and ran to where the jungle begins, and then they stopped following me […] 49 For his part, Luis Sel Murillo Villamizar stated, “[…] As we were getting out the dead and wounded, the helicopter continued firing its machine guns and followed us for about two kilometers up the road, while everyone was leaving the village.” 50 Amalio Neite stated, “[…] I felt that I had been wounded and I told my brother to have a look at me […] and I was bleeding, and I looked at my other brother and he was limping too. When I saw all this, I went up the road with the women and children, and as I was going there a helicopter came above us and was shooting at us […]” 51 Adán Piñeros stated, “[…] and even after the explosion as we were running up the road the same helicopter carried on blasting away at us […]” 52 66. In this regard, the Skymaster video footage narrated in the judgment at first instance shows that between 10:10 and 10:11 a.m. a crew member of that plane, referring to helicopter “Harpy”, shouts, “Tell him to cease fire, damn it! They are civilians. [...] Jesus Christ! He's shooting 47 Annex 4.
