Gualberto Vega

Gualberto Vega Yapura (died July 17, 1980, La Paz) was a Bolivian trade unionist. Vega Yapura was the head of the FSTMB miners' union.

Vega Yapura was shot down and killed by paramilitary forces, as they attacked the Central Obrera Boliviana office on the morning of the July 17, 1980 coup d'état of Luis García Meza. On July 17, 2010, Bolivian president Evo Morales honoured Vega Yapura and other victims of the July 17, 1980 massacre at a ceremony in the Palacio Quemado. At the same function, Vega Yapura's widow Isabel Mena urged Morales to bring the perpetrators of killings of the military regimes to justice.
