Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is A. In the Dirty War of Argentina, which lasted from 1976 to 1983, those opposing military rule were killed.

Explanation:

The Dirty War in Argentina is the common name for measures of state terrorism (mass abductions, torture, extrajudicial executions) undertaken by Argentine military dictatorships and culminating during the reign of the last military junta in the 20th century in 1976-1983.

On March 24, 1976, an army led by Jorge Videla made a coup and overthrew President Isabel Peron. With the help of the military, Videla gained wide powers, which led to human rights violations in Argentina. Mass arrests were carried out, detainees were tortured and often killed. During the junta, 10 thousand people were killed, 30 thousand disappeared without a trace, and another 60 thousand were subjected to lengthy terms of imprisonment, torture and violence for political reasons. The main victims of the Dirty War were leftist activists, including trade unionists, students, journalists, Marxists, and peronists.

The junta collapsed in 1983, shortly after the defeat of Argentina in the Falklands War.
