当局表示，厄瓜多尔南部一所房屋内发现7具烧焦尸体，该国部分地区因暴力活动升级处于紧急状态。
厄瓜多尔在短短数年内从南美最安全的国家之一沦为可卡因贩运枢纽，深受与墨西哥和哥伦比亚贩毒集团有关联的黑帮困扰。
警方称，尸体于周二在卡纳尔省拉特龙卡尔镇农村地区的一所房屋内被发现。
一份警方报告显示，其中两具尸体被铁丝捆绑。房屋外还有一辆被烧毁的汽车。
报告补充称，受害者年龄在21岁至30岁之间，并指出这起暴力事件可能与黑帮争夺地盘的战争有关。
发现尸体的房屋墙壁上被喷涂了包括“狼之地”和“狼群已行动”在内的标语。
Los Lobos——意为“狼群”——是厄瓜多尔主要的贩毒和敲诈勒索黑帮之一，与国际贩毒集团存在关联。去年9月，美国将“狼群”列为恐怖组织。
上个月，在西南部贩毒热点地区的塑料袋中发现了8具尸体，厄瓜多尔官员表示，现场发现的一张纸条表明，受害者是“狼群”的目标，这是其与敌对帮派“乔内罗斯”战争的一部分。
一名曾担任矿业城镇市长的人士——当局认为他是“狼群”的主要资金支持者——于周二在邻近省份被捕。
全球最大和第二大可卡因生产国哥伦比亚和秘鲁所产的可卡因，约70%经厄瓜多尔转运。
去年，厄瓜多尔记录了超过9200起暴力死亡事件——创历史新高，黑帮还参与贩毒、敲诈勒索、绑架和非法采矿活动。
最新的暴力事件发生在美国支持的针对该国有组织犯罪黑帮的军事打击行动期间。今年早些时候，美国突击队员与厄瓜多尔军队联合开展行动，旨在摧毁该国沿海地区一个疑似由一名涉嫌恐怖主义毒贩组织运营的犯罪据点。
2024年，厄瓜多尔最大毒枭阿道夫·马西亚斯从最高安全级监狱越狱后，于2025年6月被重新抓获。此后，该国黑帮暴力活动持续不减。阿道夫·马西亚斯是“乔内罗斯”帮派的头目。2025年7月，厄瓜多尔政府将马西亚斯引渡至美国，他在那里面临多项贩毒和枪支指控。
7 charred bodies found in Ecuador house with gang-related messages painted on walls: “The Wolves are active”

Seven charred bodies have been found in a house in southern Ecuador, authorities said, an area of the country under a state of emergency due to rising violence.
Ecuador has gone from being one of South America’s safest countries to a cocaine trafficking hub in a few short years, plagued by gangs with ties to Mexican and Colombian cartels.
Police said the bodies were found Tuesday inside a house in a rural area of the Canar province town of La Troncal.
Two of the bodies were tied up with wire, a police report said. There was also a burned-out car outside the residence.
The victims were between 21 and 30 years old, the report added, noting that the violence may be linked to a gang-related turf war.
Messages including “land of Wolves” and “the Wolves are active” had been painted on the walls of the house where the bodies were found.
Los Lobos — meaning “The Wolves” — is one of Ecuador’s main drug trafficking and extortion gangs, with ties to international cartels. Last September, Los Lobos was designated a terrorist organization by the United States.
Last month, eight bodies were found in plastic bags in a southwestern narco-trafficking hotspot, and Ecuadoran officials said a note found at the scene suggested the victims were targeted by Los Lobos, as part of its war with the rival Los Choneros gang.

A former mayor of a mining town — who authorities consider the main financial backer of Los Lobos — was arrested Tuesday in a neighboring province.
Around 70% of the drugs produced by Colombia and Peru, the world’s largest and second-largest cocaine producers, respectively, are shipped through Ecuador.
Last year Ecuador recorded over 9,200 violent deaths — a record high — with gangs also engaging in drug trafficking, extortion, kidnapping and illegal gold mining.
The latest violence comes in the midst of a U.S.-backed military crackdown on the organized crime gangs in the country. Earlier this year, American commandos joined Ecuadorian troops in a joint mission aimed at dismantling a suspected criminal hub operated by an alleged narco-terrorist organization along the country’s coast.
Criminal gang violence continues unabated in Ecuador following the recapture in June 2025 of the country’s biggest drug lord, Adolfo Macías, who leads Los Choneros, after his escape from a maximum-security prison in 2024. In July 2025, the Ecuadoran government extradited Macías to the United States, where he faces multiple drug trafficking and firearms charges.
