Since the 18th of April 2018, Nicaragua has been an unequal battle ground. The police have brought together groups of paramilitaries and vandals, who assault the local population.
The police, with instructions from their supreme leader, José Daniel Ortega Saavedra, use war weapons, AK-47s and long-range rifles used by snipers. Nicaraguans find themselves in trenches and barricades of stones, trees, metallic waste, and paving stones among other things.
