The fire of 2019
After the fire

In 1975 Indonesia began to occupy East Timor. The last parts of Liquiça, like Leotala, were conquered in early 1978.

As of January 1999, up to 5100 refugees seeking protection from the violence surrounding the independence referendum gathered in Faulara . Faulara was a resettlement camp that had existed since 1996 and originally had 1,600 residents. Some of the refugees were also housed in outposts, such as Banitur, eight kilometers away. On July 16, the pro-Indonesian militia Besi Merah Putih (BMP) attacked the camp.

A forest fire on October 2nd and 3rd, 2019 caused great destruction in the Suco.
