Fuerzas Armadas Guanches

The Guanche Armed Forces (Spanish: Fuerzas Armadas Guanches (FAG)) was the armed wing of the Movement for the Self-Determination and Independence of the Canarian Archipelago, Spanish: Movimiento por la Autodeterminación e Independencia del Archipiélago Canario (MPAIAC).

It was active between 1 November 1976 and late 1978, when the group unilaterally announced a "ceasefire" in what it considered to be "struggle against Spanish colonial occupation" of the Canary Islands.

As the regime of Generalísimo Francisco Franco was collapsing, the Guanche Armed Forces planted dynamite bombs (which they obtained primarily from road construction sites) demanding Canary independence.

Upon reorganisation of the Fuerzas Armadas Guanches, the Destacamentos Armados Canarios emerged.
