On December 7, 1989 throughout all Cuba, the Cuban people paid well-deserved tribute and buried their fallen internationalist fighters in the struggle for the freedom of Angola.

?December 7 will become a day of remembrance for all Cubans who gave their lives not only in defense of their homeland, but also of humanity. In this way, patriotism and internationalism, two of the most beautiful values ??that man has been able to create, will be united forever in the history of Cuba?, the leader of the Revolution Fidel Castro emphasized.

It is a day of evocation to those who fell in the deed, who lost their lives during the more than 13 years of Cuban solidarity presence in Angola, as well as in other scenarios of aid to brother peoples, such as Ethiopia and Nicaragua.

31 years after the Operation Tribute, Mayabeque fighters, students and workers will honor their martyrs.
