Description
A girl carries a child in her arms in the refugee camp near Berlín. She is wearing a flowered dress and he is wearing striped shirt. These refugees were re-located outside of their hometown after their houses were destroyed by a Salvadoran Army assault in Berlín. Guerrilleros occupied the town of Berlín for four days before the Salvadoran military assaulted the town with rockets launched from airplanes. ishop Arturo Rivera y Damas, bishop of San Salvador, denounced the assault a few days after and announced that the destruction left more than 300 people (mostly civilians, and few Salvadoran soldiers and rebels) dead during that week of February. Una niña lleva a un niño en sus brazos en el campamento de refugiados cerca de Berlín. Ella lleva un vestido florido y él una camisa rayada. Estos refugiados fueron reubicados fuera de su ciudad natal después de que sus casas fueran destruidas por un ataque del ejército salvadoreño en Berlín. Los guerrilleros ocuparon la ciudad de Berlín durante cuatro días antes de que el ejército salvadoreño golpeara la ciudad con cohetes lanzados desde aviones. El obispo Arturo Rivera y Damas, obispo de San Salvador, denunció pocos días después el asalto y anunció que la destrucción dejó a más de 300 personas (en su mayoría civiles, y pocos soldados y rebeldes salvadoreños) muertas durante esa semana de febrero.
