Eight medical students from Havana were executed in Cuba by the Spanish based on lies

153
years ago

27 November 1871,

The Spaniards executed eight medical students from Havana in Cuba and dozens more imprisoned. They were given two war councils, falsely accused of profaning the tomb of anti-Cuban Spanish journalist Gonzalo Castanón. All rifles were under 21 years of age. Innocence reflects what happened in that black chapter of Cuban history: “The day when Spain murdered the innocence.”
