The correct answer is B. The Dirty War.
The Guerra Sucia, or Dirty War, refers to a period of state terrorism in Argentina from 1976 to 1983, during which the military dictatorship targeted suspected dissidents, leftist activists, and anyone perceived as a threat. Thousands of people were abducted, tortured, and killed. Memorial Day in Argentina is observed to honor the victims of this tragic period.
