In this Tuesday, February 28, 2017 photo, FARC rebel Sandra Saez holds her 4-month-old daughter Manuela outside her tent at a rebel camp in a demobilization zone in La Carmelita, in Colombia's southwestern Putumayo state. Maternity was always a hot topic of discussion within the rebel ranks, and the practice of forbidding female fighters from keeping their children at the camps flew in the face of the rebels’ claim that by enrolling female warriors they were freeing women from traditional gender roles that restricted women’s choices, and it angered many in this devoutly Roman Catholic country.
