The Andahuaylas uprising, better known in Peru as the Andahuaylazo,[3] was a military uprising that took place in the Peruvian city of Andahuaylas and was led by the retired Peruvian Army major Antauro Humala, who, leading 160 reservists,[4] demanded the resignation of then-President Alejandro Toledo among other key objectives.[1] It took place between January 1 and 4, 2005, ending with the capture of Antauro Humala and the surrender of his followers.
The rebels had the objective of transforming power, through the implementation of major reforms, since they wanted a transitional government under a constituent assembly with the command of different leaders, who, according to the rebels, would have changed the lifestyle of the population and the Peruvian state system itself.
