Venezuela’s acting president Delcy Rodríguez has declared seven days of national mourning following a US military strike on Saturday that killed at least 57 people. In a televised address on Tuesday, Rodríguez said the mourning honors those who gave their lives defending the country and President Nicolás Maduro.

According to BBC, the dead include 23 members of Venezuela’s security forces, 32 Cuban fighters, and two civilian women. Cuba’s state newspaper Granma published details of the fallen soldiers under the headline “Honor and Glory.” The Cuban government expressed condolences to the families of the 32 Cuban fighters, while President Miguel Díaz-Canel announced two days of national mourning in Cuba to honor their bravery and dignity.

Cuba has long been a close ally of Venezuela, providing military and police support in key operations. Mourning ceremonies were held across both countries over the weekend to commemorate the victims.
