Polling is underway in congressional elections in Colombia, after a campaign marred by violence.
The elections come just months before May's presidential vote.
Many see the ballot as a referendum on leftist President Gustavo Petro’s agenda.
But the campaign unfolded in many areas where armed groups still operate.
Al Jazeera’s Alessandro Rampietti reports from Toribio, Colombia.
