Waiters were hurrying to and fro between the tables and around 300 people, many American, were having dinner, drinking and talking. A young man at the bar went to the toilets carrying a sports bag. When he returned, he placed the bag under the bar counter and left. After a few moments, the establishment was rocked by a powerful explosion. The bag contained a bomb consisting of around five kilograms of explosives, which caused a major section of the building to give way. The two upper floors collapsed onto the basement, where most of the victims were killed by falling rubble. Altogether, 18 people died and 84 were wounded. Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack some days later, but the security forces were more inclined to believe a second claim by the group WAAD (&#8220;The Promise&#8221;), linked to special units of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The true perpetrators were never identified, and the case was shelved in 1987. In 2005, two years before the crime was due to prescribe, the case was reopened when a witness identified the alleged bomber, Mustafa Setmariam Nasar, Al Suri, who had links to the Madrid bombings of 11 March 2004.<\/p>\n<p>Australian Mercedes Dresh Recarte had gone to El Descanso to have dinner with her fianc\u00e9, Alberto Ortega, whom she was due to marry in a few months, as well as her friend and co-worker Cristina Salado, who survived after being buried under the rubble for two hours, and Cristina&#8217;s husband, Jos\u00e9 Arturo Rodr\u00edguez Pato, who also died in the attack.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>Images<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"evc-image-gallery evc-shortcode evc-element-has-columns  evc-ig-grid-type evc-one-columns evc-normal-space  \">\n\t<div class=\"evc-ig-wrapper evc-element-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/19850412-es-m-el-descanso-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"671\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/19850412-es-m-el-descanso-4.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"655\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/19850412-es-m-el-descanso-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"612\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/19850412-es-m-el-descanso-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>Press<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"evc-image-gallery evc-shortcode evc-element-has-columns prensa-v evc-ig-grid-type evc-one-columns evc-normal-space  \">\n\t<div class=\"evc-ig-wrapper evc-element-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/092-maria-del-carmen-alcaide-abc-sevilla.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"614\" height=\"852\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/092-maria-del-carmen-alcaide-abc.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":16393,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_promoted":"","_job_location":"Calle de Lola Flores, 28022 Madrid, Espa\u00f1a","_company_website":"","_filled":0,"_featured":0,"_remote_position":0,"_job_salary":"","_job_salary_currency":"","_job_salary_unit":""},"job-categories":[140],"job-types":[],"job_listing_amenity":[],"job_listing_region":[61],"job_listing_tag":[],"class_list":["post-26924","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","job_listing_category-jihadist-terrorism","job_listing_region-espana","edad-20-a-29-anos","edad-20-a-29-anos-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
