TRIGGER WARNING:
On #ThisDayInHistory in 1980 in #ElSalvador, three nuns and a lay worker were kidnapped, raped, and killed by US-trained #FarRight #DeathSquads in the #SalvadoranCivilWar. The officers in charge were given immunity & asylum in the US, being deported only in 2016.

In 1989 on #ThisDayInHistory, the military of #ElSalvador killed six #Jesuits and two women who were with them. The priests had been advocating a negotiated peace deal with the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (#FMLN) leftist group during the bloody #SalvadoranCivilWar.

"Guerrillas in the Mist" - So named because FMLN rebels were likely out there ... somewhere. Taken early morning from the latrine in a secluded part of the village of Ciudad Segundo Montes, Morazán, El Salvador, 1990 #Photography #Landscape #ElSalvador #SalvadoranCivilWar #Fog
