An unnamed Peruvian journalist describes his  “moving account of the death and destruction caused by a major army operation.” He details the harrowing trip he made, along with a small group of other journalists and human rights workers, to the Huanuco jungle region to investigate the massacre that took place there. After being led to the site of the massacred villagers by the surviving victims, the group then went to the Los Laureles Army Base in Tingo Maria and interviewed Colonel Javier Rivas Ramirez. Rivas went on to describe the army operations in the area.
