It was founded in 1984 by [[Víctor Polay]], in the Context of the [[Internal Conflict in Peru]], with the aim of establishing a socialist state in Peru, and taking many inspirations from [[Che Guevara]].

Among the actions committed by the '''MRTA''', are the use of car bombs to attack State Armed Institutions, the murder of police and military, extortion, murder, kidnappings and other [[crimes against humanity]].

Many of these actions were directed mainly against the government of Peru, although they also fought against the terrorist group [[Shining Path]].

The '''MRTA''' was also a [[Homophobia|homophobic]] group, this was reflected in the [[Tarapoto Massacre]], where members of the '''MRTA''' killed 8 homosexual people in what could be considered a [[hate crime]].

In 1996, 14 '''MRTA''' members commanded by [[Néstor Cerpa Cartolini]] seized the Japanese embassy in Lima, capturing 800 hostages (although they released some hostages who were not targeting), in an event that ended after the Peruvian army launched an armed raid and released the hostages.

At present, this organization is disarticulated at the military level, but there are indications that some of its former members were trying to rebuild an organizational structure until at least the first decade of the 21st century, 14 15 infiltrating civilian organizations on the extreme left.
