Several cultural and academic centers shared images and messages of solidarity, amplifying the funeral ceremony, which was broadcast live on national television.
“The images of our leaders at the airport, paying this well-deserved tribute, reflect the pain of an entire nation and the firm resolve that their sacrifice will not be in vain,” the Cuban Fund for Cultural Assets posted on its Facebook page.
“We honor their return home. Their example of internationalism and courage lives forever in our memory and in our struggle,” the organization added.
This message joins the digital gestures of other institutions such as the Cuban Book Institute, the National Council of Performing Arts, and the Cuban Institute of Cinematographic Art and Industry, which shared images and excerpts from the national broadcast.
The president of Casa de las Américas in Havana, Abel Prieto, and the president of the Hermanos Saíz Association, Yasel Toledo, also reinforced the collective support through virtual platforms.
Since early morning, a group of Cuban people and authorities have been honoring the remains of the 32 Cuban combatants who died during the aggression against Venezuela by the United States government, at the headquarters of the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces.
