78th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs’ Day: A heartfelt tribute of gratitude
The War Invalids and Martyrs' Day (July 27) is an occasion for the entire Party, people, and armed forces to express deep gratitude to heroic martyrs, war invalids, sick soldiers, and families who rendered meritorious service to the revolution. It also serves as a time to uphold the tradition of “when drinking water, remember its source,” through meaningful activities that honour and support policy beneficiary families.
