Between 300 and 600 Salvadoran refugees were massacred while trying to cross the Sumpul River in Chalatenango, El Salvador, on May 13, 1980 during the Salvadoran Civil War. Salvadoran Armed Forces and pro-government paramilitaries launched an offensive to disrupt the activities of the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN).
