On April 22, 1997, at 15:23, one of the world's most incredible military operations occurred on the planet, and you've probably never heard of it...
Operation Chavín de Huántar was a surgical military operation that took place after the MRTA (a far left-wing guerrilla movement) took close to 800 hostages at the Japanese Embassy in Lima, Peru. It was not just any operation, however, but one that required an extreme amount of preparation, patience, and care.

But after hearing more about its final results, you'll understand why I'm hyping it up so much and why, despite the noise-making from human rights campaigners that followed (who were nowhere to be seen when the victims were taken hostage by the armed men to begin with!), it was considered an astounding military success.
Find out more about exactly what happened that day (and everything that led up to it) in this week's incredible episode of the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast!
