Diana Carnero, councilor of Naranjal (Guayas province – Ecuador), was murdered on Wednesday night. She was a member of the Citizen Revolution (RC) movement.

According to what was published by El Regional del Zulia, Carnero received several gunshot wounds while he was carrying out a work activity, supervising the state of the roads in the Ecuadorian town.

The young woman was immediately taken to the hospital, but died due to the severity of her injuries.

“I just found out that today they murdered our colleague Diana Carnero, Councilor of Naranjal. A heartfelt hug to her family. While these things are happening, others dedicate themselves to criticizing from their vanity between voting NO or ABSTENING, how they have lost their way! ”, he wrote on the social network X.
