In December 1965, the Tupac Amaru Front, a guerrilla column in the central region of the country, was annihilated by counterinsurgent forces. This front was part of the guerrilla movements that operated in Peru between 1965 and 1967, which arose as a result of the agrarian problem and anti-landowner peasant mobilizations. Its main leaders were killed during the annihilation operation. This event occurred shortly after the dismantling of the Pachacutec Front of Cuzco in October 1965, where Luis de la Puente Uceda of the MIR was killed.
