In this opportunity, our mobile unit crossed territories controlled by the Francisco Sanchez Eastern Front, crossing over rivers and mountains, until they reached the village of El Junquillo in the department of Morazán, where the dictatorship committed one of its habitual massacres against innocent elderly, women, and children.

We found it right here next to the bed. I suspect that they took her from the bed to kill her and to do who knows what else they did to her, probably raped her, because we found her remains next to the bed.

All those people were first raped and then killed with knives, they slit all those people’s throats, they say, All those North Americans that were with Napoleon Medina Garay. Yes, and that’s how they kill all those young babies, and also a two-day old baby girl. Her name was Dominga Diaz.

While the dictatorship talks of elections, our country talks about the reality of death and repression that El Salvador lives.

As I said, we were lied to. They told us that the soldiers brought foreign journalists and that they couldn’t kill defenseless women and children in front of journalists. I speak of Capitan Medina Garay, yes, him. He made them get close when he came here.

Up next, Radio Venceremos presents, Plomo Informativo against the dictatorship’s information siege.

The Band Tepehuani tours through Europe. The Band Tepehuani, a testimonial music group of our country carries out a tour through Europe. They had four concerts in France. In Great Britain, they visited several cities. Afterward, they had two performances in Belgium. Presently, they are in Germany where they will carry out a country-wide tour. Later, they will travel to Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. The concerts have proven the European people’s solidarity with our people’s struggle and the rejection of the United States' intervention in El Salvador’s internal issues.

Next, information on Paris, France. The President of France, François Mitterrand tapped writer and journalist Regis Debray as his foreign policy advisor. Debray, who is 40 years of age, has a degree in Philosophy from the Univeristy of Soborna and he has an advanced education from the Superior National School, both of which are in Paris. He is part of the French Socialist Party since 1973.

Regis Debray was with Commander Ernesto “Che” Guevara during the struggle in Bolivia. In his last trip to Latin America, Regis Debray gave his complete support to the Salvadoran people’s struggle for peace and democracy against the military dictatorships that have oppressed the country for the past 50 years.

Washington. A large concentration of hundreds of North American citizens with hundreds of representatives from Black, juvenile, and other union organizations protested in this city against the racist terror in Atlanta under the slogan, “Save our people. Put an end to racist murders, protect our Atlanta youth, and No to the Salvadoran junta.”

While the United States states help the Salvadoran junta, it neglects the North American people to the extent that it permits racists and neo-fascists to wander freely throughout the North American territory.

More information. Thugs from the dictatorship assassinate two union leaders in San Salvador. The workers Carlos Ibrian Resinos and Jose Alirio Martinez were assassinated this past Tuesday, May 26th, by police officers dressed as civil society, according to reports by factory workers from the candy factory Delicia. The police officers were controlling the workers' entrance, inconspicuously posted in front of the factory when the unionists arrived. They shot them at point-blank range.

Carlos Ibrian Resinos, worked as the Secretary of Finances, and Jose Alirio Martinez Martinez as the General Secretary of the union. We strongly condemn and repudiate the dictatorship’s new attempt against the Salvadoran working class. At the same time, we join in solidarity with our comrades of the sweets and pasta industry union against this regime’s abuses, and we encourage them to continue forward in the struggle for their revindications and for a revolutionary and democratic government.
