(241129) -- SHENYANG, Nov. 29, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Guards of honor escort the caskets of the fallen Chinese People's Volunteers (CPV) martyrs during a burial ceremony at the CPV martyrs' cemetery in Shenyang, northeast China's Liaoning Province, Nov. 29, 2024. The remains of 43 Chinese People's Volunteers (CPV) soldiers who lost their lives during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-1953) were laid to rest on Friday in Shenyang, capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province.
Since 2014, China and the Republic of Korea (ROK), in accordance with international laws and humanitarian principles, have completed 11 consecutive handovers of the remains of 981 CPV martyrs who died in the ROK.
About 74 years ago, the CPV crossed the Yalu River and fought alongside the army and civilians of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. After an arduous fight that lasted almost three years, the CPV eventually won the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. More than 197,000 CPV soldiers were confirmed killed in the war.
