Argentina begins trial for officials accused of covering up dictatorship death flights

Argentina has begun a trial against individuals accused of covering up the deaths of victims from the military dictatorship's "death flights." This marks the first time in 45 years that such cases are being prosecuted. The defendants include a judge, a police doctor, and several police officers. They are accused of concealing the identities of bodies that washed ashore in 1978 after being thrown from planes. Witness testimonies are set to begin soon in Mar del Plata. The trial aims to clarify the actions of those involved in hiding the victims, as Argentina continues to seek justice for crimes committed during its dictatorship from 1976 to 1983.
