Video - Thousands Gather in Havana to Honor 32 Cubans Killed During U.S. Invasion in Venezuela


from Cuba Analysis Podcasts

Thousands of Cubans rose early this morning to honor the 32 compatriots killed by U.S. troops during the violent abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 3, 2026. Their remains were flown into Havana, and honoured with a ceremony there before being carried along Boyeros Avenue—lined with mourners—to the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces. People waited for hours to pay tribute to the fallen Cubans, despite the heavy rain which swept in, filing past the coffins in silence and sorrow.

Cuba Analysis co-host Helen Yaffe was there as the procession passed and spoke with attendees about why they had participated and what this moment means for them and for Cuba.
