- Sky's chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay travels to Guayaquil, Ecuador, to see how police are dealing with surging gang and cartel violence related to the drug trade.
Drug gangs have been recategorised as terrorists by Ecuador's government - that means the security forces have carte blanche to do what they like.
Ecuador is being used as an international transit hub for cocaine by the powerful and uber violent Mexican drug cartels.

All those ladies crying are protecting their gangster sons, bfs, and husbands.
more loyal than any american 304
💯% agreed
EXACTLY!!!!
Before the gangs, Ecuador was the safest country in South America. It's so great that the government is fighting back!!!
In Ecuador there are no gangs but mafias since they are very structured organizations
The government unfortunately will never win against the cartels. They have to much money and to much manpower eventually the government will run out of money trying to win and the government will surrender 💯💯💯💯💯
The government will end up losing 😂
They aint doing jack, the gov is def in on it thats why its called organized crime
@@PROLIFIC_TRAVELSyou are dreaming
People moan when there’s nothing done then moan when they do something
Possibly some of them side with gangs
Ecuador one of the safest country South America. Now, a cartel land. Great work by the government to restore security.
It's easy = OPEN THE DOOR, COOPERATE, BE POLITE!
This is how to reclaim a country from gangs.
not really, most of the highly problematic areas are already back to the "normal", kidnappings, extortion, murders, no presence of authorites.
@@sss-gl9etSource? I’m hearing the exact opposite

Liberation from terrorists
No hope In the world repent of evil don't trust in mankind for salvation or help trust Jesus Christ today
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Come to Jesus Christ today
Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void
Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus
The real mafia is not in the slums. The henchmen are, sure. But their bosses are in mansions, also many within the government, police and military.
This is why families need to educate their sons and daughters how to avoid the drugs
LET'S GO MY ECUADOR!!! Not a step back!!!!
These people should be happy something is being done. That country was ravaged by drugs and gangs.
They not happy.they are gang members
Things simply couldn’t carry on the way they were…
Drug militants, not cartels!
yeah they work for cartels. they're subordinate gangs, satelite groups at best.
is there a difference?
"Troubled citizens not criminals" 😉
They work together
Good! Following the lead of El Salvador!
It’s a reckoning that’s been a long time coming
War on Drugs turned War on Terror.
A lot of terrorist groups use drugs to make money so yeah that's how it works
The sooner latin america adopts the Bukele plan the better.
What ecuador is doing is amazing... Keep it up Mr President Nayeb Bukele
Nayeb Bukele is the president of El Salvador , 🇸🇻 no Ecuador 🇪🇨, the president is Daniel Noboa.
From our experience fighting terrorism in Nigeria we found out that providing development and services to the people was a more effective strategy than strong arm tactics even though the stick must never be too far away.
Agreed there has to be a two fold approach. All these tough tactics are cute but gangs are a symptom. A symptom resulting from failed, inept and/or corrupt governments. These countries have failed their people.
It’s amazing how much this resembles Puerto Rico.
really??😮
I been to Puerto Rico ain’t the hood parts don’t look like nothing on this level , in pr “the hoods” look pretty nice and modern
BUKELE METHOD WILL WORK 100% , GO FORWARD
Good old sky news. Moan that there is a big problem with drug cartels, then when the countries police step it up, the news start saying they are wrong 😂😂😂
They don't profit from peace because society is too dumb to see corruption and soon Nukes will destroy the world and then people will suddenly cry like little babies when they allowed corrupt politicians and big corporations to do so 😂
DECRIMINALIZATION AND TAXATION OF ALL DRUGS
If there is no market for drugs, there wouldbe no gangs
Great work!! U figured it all out..thank u for ur hard work...well done mate..😂
@@sopranos45 quik maths
@@pullupina9687 huh?
Dont wait until the ships reach the ports meet them on the waters and search them
Looks like the easy money is drifting away.. 😢😢.. keep up the pressure
The US has got to do this. Drugs are everywhere and addicts are running rampant.
that will never happen, aslong as drugs are a thing then the US government is going to profit from them....
like come on dude hahahaha, the US government funds the race the media call a "drug war"
1:32 Keep the same energy for the cartel and see what will occur. People have no shame and zero understanding regarding the struggles their country is facing, internally.
Are u standing up for the cartels?😂 u keep that same energy fofo 😂
Labelled as terrorists best way, in an environment like that.
A lot of terrorists use drugs to make money so yeah that's how it works
This is not going to fix this it’s going to be a war for now they narco gangs are laying low but their time is coming 😢I know how’s this will play out sadly. The government don’t want to listen and better the prison system! I have family in prison in Ecuador and they been without water and food for over a month very low quantity of water and food ppl are dying the mafia will attack sooner or later! This is not a way to fix things while the narcos are protected by the Gov this is ridiculous
Youre delusional
What's your solution? Just to let them grow and "WAIT" for the "perfect" moment ?
Im from Ecuador and jail is different from other countries all those prisoners has family members that can bring them what they need remember they are not in jail for being good people they are killers they have committed crimes against humanity
How come they are not knocking on the mansions of the bosses instead?
They already did pal
Ya lo hicieron
@@Merry19ss cheers pal really understand that
@@Stirling-MossWhere can we find the footage?
@@Merry19ss😄
The ending,listen to the message on there.
I hope everyone listened to the ending of this video.
0:07 Bro didn't even say sorry or excuse me 😭
We need bukele in every country!
"Obviously they are upset, because we control this area now". Nothing but poor regular people 😂. The way they make it sound so dramatic, they should've been takjng in hundreds of gang members. If it's a narco state, thats because people higher up are involved, the government, police, politicians, people not living in those areas. These poor civilians and small time gang members aren't the ones making millions from selling drugs. They are merely exploited to be used. This documentary is a prime example of that exploitation. Trying to show the world that Ecuador is doing something about a big problem pffft, mere propaganda. The big guys use these small ones to their advantage. Two thumbs down
I have absolutely no hope that that woman is correct.
That was a waste... They couldn't make at least one decent size drug bust with the camera crew...lame 😂😂
Public Safety (Seguridad Pública)
Hope El Salvador can help them
Well I guess this is what happens when governments let it go for to long with out doing much.. now people have to pay the price.
That’s not war
oh looky the drug war is still going on after a century😅😂
they should write a manual for Mexico
Ecuador is a much smaller country. Plus these are gangs they're fighting against not heavenly armed cartels.
Mexico is not as dense as Ecuador. Cartels are deep in jungles and mountains.
Ecuador has smaller borders.
Mexico has a large border with the U.S. more reason for them to actually get brutal to maintain control of said border. Ecuador has important ports.
@@adrianlopez9591 Man, mexico president is eater corrupt or has no balls
Ecuador era el país mas seguro de America del Sur, hasta que abrieron las puertos de las fronteras y entraron los carteles y se unieron a pandillas.
It's never been the safest country it's always been a main drug route
Follow BUKALI EL SALVADOR.
poverty.. :/
What I want to know is where they get all those guns!!!!
educate people not to take drugs, no demand no supply
Taking a chapter from El Salvador I guess.
Antes del Salvador , Ecuador era el país mas seguro hasta que abrieron las puertos de las fronteras y entraron los carteles y se unieron a pandillas.
It was as the same as what the former president did in the philippines, he ordered a war on drugs and a lot of small time drug users and traffickers died during that drug war campaign…for some people it was ok that it happen that way, but politics ruined everything. Human rights group demamded investigations on the killings of suspected drug dealers and traffickers even politicians are depending them and ask the international criminal courts to invistigate.
War on Drugs
El Salvador
Build the wall
Crockadile tears
I believe the cops.he was straight up
I honestly don't understand why the women in the videos make such a drama. The police is not going to execute their whole family for mistakes comitted by one person.
Duterte approved 👍
Good luck 😂😂😂
What's so funny
If Europe and North Americans didn't like their drugs so much none of this would be happening. Food for thought.
Be nice if ATF and DEA could do the same in America for both gangs and gun owners to remove America's gun problem maybe CPAC was right about having a strong man democracy 🤔 for the greater good of course
Ya sure they are all good people. Thats why they are ruled by gangster. 😂😂😂😂
Looks like there going into the black neighborhoods with full immunity. I feel sorry for the hard working poor people
Bukele is a puke.
anybody who can translate what are the civilians screaming? because the police obviously went in a peaceful territory to show off before cameras
Hmmm. I live in Ecuador. From what I see here, the police won´t go into a territory until there is ample evidence of drug activity. The drug-traffickers were killing the country. Something needed to be done.
I am from Jamaica and it's the same thing these people try to act like they are innocent when they are supporting the gangs by protesting for them and inform them when the police is comming.
Those women are screaming and insulting because they are relatives of the "bad guys"
Found the US liberal 😂
please mind your own business
Has the best worst reporting i have ever seen, the level of lawlessness will come to the UK and your softly softly approach will lead to destruction
Ok boomer
It will be continuously tolerated over in the UK…. 😀
@GregoryCunningham I was born in 93 & I think the uk is clasping in on itself, Britain that's No longer British.... does that also make me a Boomer
ok zoomer @@GregoryCunningham
800 million operation for a small baggie 😮😂
I am living in Ecuador. As of Feb. 13th, the authorities have confiscated 49, 264 kilograms of illegal drugs. In this particular video of one operation the net gain was small, but similar operations here are discovering large amounts.
It’s still something
Since that city is known for drug activity, the fact that they only found one small baggie shows that what they are doing is working.
Becareful EQUADOR the ICC is watching
So what?
Im watching from the ICC right now
Russia in Ukraine, Israel in Gaza. ICC = toothless
Others are watching ICC
If the Ecuador police are so tough lets see them try to go in to MEXICO and get EL MENCHO
EL MENCHO makes EL CHAPO look like a Teddy Bear
The Hard Men in this clip would CRAP THEMSELVES
Any organised military force could wipe out a cartel in months but they are never authorised to do so in Mexico because Mexican government is corrupt LOL
Legalise it!
They need sweat lodges in Ayahuasca with shamans in with shamans in in rehabilitating and helping cleanse the evil out of the spirits of all the people who want to renew themselves and become someone who doesn't need to be in prison anymore,,, they can help and boath the government and the bad boys can find a middle ground and re-create the future together i prey
