According to de la Espriella, one of those killed was a high-ranking member of the guerrillas and close to the country's most wanted guerrilla leader, Iván Mordisco.
Five people were arrested in connection with the raids on Monday morning, local time.
De la Espriella was elected on a promise to fight “narco-terrorism without a ceasefire,” with both the military and mega-prisons. He took office as president in August.
