The 23 sets of remains were found in a joint effort of the Thua Thien – Hue Military Command and Lao authorities and people during the past months.

Attending the ceremony were representatives of the Government, Ministry of National Defence, Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, the Military Zone 4 and heads of provincial agencies.

After offering flowers and incenses at the city’s martyrs monument, the organising board buried the remains, of which three were identified and sent home for funerals.
