The Day of the Young Combatant (Día del joven combatiente) is observed in Chile every March 29. This non-official remembrance day commemorates the death anniversary of brothers Eduardo and Rafael Vergara Toledo, who were members of the Revolutionary Left Movement (MIR) and are believed to have been victims of the Augusto Pinochet regime in 1985. Originally established to honor young victims of the dictatorship, the day has evolved into a time for demonstrations and protests against the current government. Activities often include acts of violence such as throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails at vehicles, buildings, and police officers, which has led to the day being referred to as Día del joven delincuente, meaning Day of the Criminal Youth or Day of the Young Offender.
