Pamphlet bomb follows government warnings
Despite its institutional instability Ecuador, unlike its neighbours, has not suffered from protracted armed insurgency. The country, however, has not been entirely free of militant activity. Sporadic outbursts of low scale, politically-motivated violence have troubled successive governments since Ecuador's return to democracy in 1979.

Macas.
