Relatives of an army soldier, who died in an ambush five days ago in the Andean city of Ayacucho, mourn as his body arrives at a military airport in Lima April 14, 2009. Leftist rebels in Peru will launch more attacks against the army, a commander of a remnant band of Shining Path guerrillas said after their eleventh deadly ambush in rugged coca-growing regions this year.
