Abstract
The terrorist organisation ETA committed its first violent acts in Navarre in the mid-1960s and began an escalation of violence in the region that would result in 42 people being killed, the last of them in 2003, 214 officially recognised injuries and hundreds of attacks. These included six completed attacks and at least two other frustrated attacks against the University of Navarre as part of a strategy of violent persecution at the institutional level that lasted for several decades, and which was justified because ETA had singled out the institution as an enemy. This article delves into the aforementioned strategy and exhaustively details the attacks, which were perpetrated between 1979 and 2008.
