Accordingly, the delegation offered incense and laid flowers, and observed a minute of silence in commemoration of the fallen soldiers’ considerable contribution to the cause of national liberation and freedom. The noble sacrifice of the heroic martyrs paved the way for the Dien Bien Phu victory.

This was a meaningful and practical activity on the occasion of the 79th founding anniversary of the Vietnam People's Army (December 22, 1944 - 2023) and the 34th anniversary of Whole-People Defense Festive Day (December 22, 1989 - 2023).

It contributed to educating the younger generation to follow the forefathers’ footsteps be determined to protect national independence, and build an increasingly prosperous and beautiful country.

Here are some photos during the event.
