National Liberation Army (ELN)

a guerilla group, founded in 1964 by radical Catholics inspired by Cuba’s communist revolution, whose principal adversary is the Colombian government. Smaller than the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the ELN has nonetheless mounted deadly attacks and earned significant revenue from kidnapping, extortion, and, more recently, drug trafficking. Designated by the United States as a terrorist organization in 1997, the group has participated in on-and-off peace negotiations with Colombia’s government.
