The Salvadoran government ordered the demolition of the Reconciliation Monument in San Salvador. The structure was composed of three statues that symbolize the Peace Accords between the State and the guerrillas of the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front (FMLN), after the cessation of the civil war of more than a decade.
