Five suspected Estructura Jaime Martínez members were killed by Colombian forces, which said the operation targeted those behind the April 26 bus bombing in Cauca.
20 civilians died and 45 were injured when explosives hit a passenger bus on the Pan-American Highway in Cajibío; earlier local reports had put the wounded toll at 36.
The military said the group also stole vehicles along the highway and used explosive-laden drones, releasing video that appeared to show body bags and seized weapons.
Gen. Hugo López blamed the attack on FARC dissidents tied to the Jaime Martínez faction and the network of Iván Mordisco, one of Colombia's most wanted men.
Cauca remains a flashpoint where armed groups compete for coca-growing territory and trafficking routes to Central America and Europe.
