Updated August 18, 2026 at 9:52 a.m. Colombia time
A report from Pereira’s Unified Command Post, published by El Tiempo at 9:12 a.m. on August 18, provides a municipality-specific toll. It should not be added to the national count.
Four municipal indicators
Local authorities list 260 rescued, 98 dead, 259 injured and 132 missing.
Searches remain open
The missing figure describes reports being followed locally at the time; the source does not give a consolidation time for each case.
A scope that must remain distinct
The figures concern Pereira. They may later feed national consolidations, but are not an extra amount to add to UNGRD totals.
Published at 9:12 a.m.
With no permanent municipal release found carrying all four figures, the timeline entry is placed at 9 a.m. using the first identified original publication.
