In a solemn atmosphere, all delegates, comrades and compatriots observed a minute of silence to commemorate and send off the remains of 32 martyrs – including 13 remains collected in Cambodia and 19 remains in the country – to rest in the beloved motherland. Unfortunately, the identities of all the remains collected in this period have not yet been determined.
From 2001 to present, Team K92 (Kien Giang Provincial Military Command) has organized 24 working sessions, collecting a total of 3,188 martyrs' remains in Cambodia, of which only 120 cases have been identified, accounting for 3.76%. In the 2024-2025 dry season alone, the Team has searched at 66 locations and collected 32 martyrs' remains.
