The Yumare massacre was an incident in which agents of DISIP, the counter-intelligence agency of Venezuela, killed nine social activists, confused with a guerrilla group. It took place on 8 May 1986 in Yaracuy state, Venezuela. At the time, officials falsely claimed that the activists ambushed the DISIP agents and were killed during an armed confrontation. The actual circumstances of the incident were revealed in 2011 by retired Army General Alexis Ramón Sanchéz, who admitted his role in the killings.
