With FARC disarmed, Colombia’s peace enters phase 2

The UN’s first mission as peace observers in Colombia comes to an end on Tuesday with the removal of containers full of arms from FARC demobilization camps. Next challenge: reintegrating former fighters into a war-torn society.

The 28 camps have been used to disarm some 7,000 guerrillas and demobilize another 4,000 militia members of the country’s longest-running guerrilla group.
