Conflict

The group surrendered after the capture and execution of their leader Julien Vezquez in Operation Green Dawn and relative peace returned. In October 2014 narsoran aircraft was hijacked and it's passengers taken hostage, although they was freed by a special forces raid, This set off a new conflict known as Operation Lightning Bolt this led a to the deaths of 275 people. The insurgency officially ended on October 16th, 2014, after the surrender of the AFLN militant group, and it's leaders.
Aftermath
