Panama Special Force Border

Panama's Special Force Border Police officer reacts as a helicopter takes off during a patrol in the area of Bonga, some 20 km (12 miles) from the Panama-Colombia border in the region of Kuna Yala July 20, 2012. The border police started an anti-drug operation "Nia ebo urwe in the Kuna Yala dialect, which means No to Drugs". The operation aims to prevent the area from being used as a smuggling route for drugs to enter Panama, and to protect the Kuna Yala indigenous communities from drug trafficking, according to Panama's Border Police Commissioner Frank Abrego.
