The State Department publishes traveler's advisories for such areas.
Have you tried contacting them?

Another source would be to contact news services which maintain outposts in
areas of concern, and do some digging.

If you want a first-hand report, you need to go to Quito! If you speak
Spanish, you can tune in a lot of the Peruvian/Ecuadorian military
communications on an HF/SSB radio receiver, although some of it is
coded.

The State Dept. as of approx mid Feb said it was safe and "don't worry,
feel happy." Their item was last updated in June, 1994. (Even though
their info is listed as updated continuously). Someone is relaxing on
the taxpayer's account.
