The skulls of 24 leaders of the Popular Resistance, repatriated Friday in Algiers on board a military plane of the Armed Forces from France, were buried Sunday, 5th July, 2020 at the Martyrs’ Square of El-Alia cemetery.
The funeral took place in the presence of President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, senior state and army officials, and members of the government.
Shortly before, a final tribute was paid to these resistance fighters at the Palace of Culture in Algiers by President Tebboune.
The day before, a public tribute was paid, on the same place, by many citizens, who came from several wilayas of the country to pay tribute to the memory of these brave fighters, including Sheikh Bouziane, Chérif Boubaghla, Moussa El-Derkaoui, Si Mokhtar Ben Kouider Al-Titraoui and Mohamed Ben-Allel Ben Embarek.
