Leftist guerrillas said they will withdraw from cease-fire talks later this month with the Salvadoran government to protest the bombing of a union hall that killed 10 people and wounded at least 29 this week. In a radio broadcast, the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front guerrillas accused the military of being responsible for the attack on the National Federation of Salvadoran Workers in San Salvador. It said the attack was in retaliation for a guerrilla raid on the Defense Ministry compound that killed a civilian and wounded 15 others.
