Remigio Ceballos Ichaso was appointed as Head of the Strategic Command Operations of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (CEOFANB) in June 2017.

In addition to human rights violations carried out by the GNB under the overall strategic command of CEOFANB, the CEOFANB was involved in directing multiple cases of extrajudicial executions, which amount to serious violations of the right to life. Ceballos bears command responsibility for the serious human rights violations carried out by CEOFANB under his command. — The Director Disqualification Sanction was imposed on 09/04/2025.
