Continuing a wave of international solidarity, Cuban diplomats and El Salvador's pro-Cuba movement honored 32 island fighters on January 7 who died in a US military raid on Venezuela's presidential palace.
On January 7, 2026, in San Salvador, Cuban diplomats and the local solidarity movement with Cuba paid tribute to the 32 Cuban fighters killed during the US Army Delta Force raid on Venezuela's presidential palace in Caracas on January 3. The operation, widely condemned as a violation of sovereignty, also led to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife.
This event follows similar homages, such as the one held by Cuban diplomats in Ecuador the previous day, highlighting the sacrifices of these heroes in defending Venezuelan sovereignty. The ceremony emphasized bonds of brotherhood among Cuba, El Salvador, and Venezuela amid ongoing regional mutual support. Described by Prensa Latina as an act of gratitude and remembrance, it drew attention to collective solidarity, though specific participants and format details were not disclosed.
