FARC Rebels Attend Conference To Ratify Peace Deal With Colombian Government

EL DIAMANTE, COLOMBIA - SEPTEMBER 24: FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) rebel David, who lost his arm due to gangrene following wounds suffered in a firefight, prepares to dry off after bathing following the 10th Guerrilla Conference in the remote Yari plains where the peace accord was ratified by the FARC on September 24, 2016 in El Diamante, Colombia. The peace agreement attempts to end the 52-year-old guerrilla war between the FARC and the state, the longest-running armed conflict in the Americas which left 220,000 dead. The final agreement is set to be signed on September 26 and will then be put to vote by the public in a referendum on October 2. The plan calls for a disarmament and re-integration of most of the estimated 7,000 FARC fighters. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
