Next, the delegation offered flowers, incense, and observed a moment of silence to express their infinite gratitude to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives at the Co Phuong Cave National Historical Site.

During the resistance war against the French colonialists, Co Phuong cave in Sai village, Phu Le commune was both a base and a transit point for food and weapons for our army to Upper Laos and the Northwest to serve the Dien Bien Phu Campaign in 1954. In order to cut off this vital route, the French colonialists tried every means to bombard it madly. On April 2, 1953, French planes suddenly circled and dropped bombs in the Sai village area, killing many young volunteers and frontline militiamen who were in their prime. They heroically sacrificed their lives while carrying out their mission of transporting food and supplies and clearing roads to serve the campaigns.
