ASUNCION, Paraguay — Human-rights activists gained access Wednesday to a dictatorship-era military archive that appears to contain long-held secrets about Paraguay’s persecution of opponents during Alfredo Stroessner’s 1954-89 rule.

The basement archive in the Ministry of Defense appears to hold some records about Operation Condor, a coordinated campaign by South American military governments against leftists during the 1970s and ’80s, said rights activist Martin Almada.
