Provincial leaders offer incense to martyrs

On the occasion of the 78th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27, 1947 - July 27, 2025), on the afternoon of July 20, provincial leaders visited and offered incense at "red addresses" in the province.

Attending the event were Party Central Committee member, Provincial Party Secretary Le Ngoc Quang; Standing Committee member, Provincial Party Committee Office Chief Le Van Bao; Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Duc Tien; and leaders of a number of departments and branches.

Provincial leaders visited and offered incense at the Xuan Son ferry memorial house in Phong Nha commune. Xuan Son ferry is one of the special national relics in the historical relic system of Truong Son road - Ho Chi Minh road. During the resistance war against the US to save the country, from 1966 to 1972, the US air force focused on attacking Xuan Son ferry fiercely. At this key point, cadres, soldiers, youth volunteers (TNXP), frontline workers, and local people heroically and steadfastly held their ground, maintained the traffic arteries, promptly provided human and material support to the southern battlefield, contributing to the cause of liberating the South and unifying the country.
