Parade rehearsal ahead of Vietnam’s 50th National Reunification Day

On Friday evening in Viet Nam, over 12,000 people participated in the national-level rehearsal for the upcoming military parade celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification.

Even under heavy rain, voices rang out proudly, honoring the great sacrifices of previous generations and cherishing today's hard-won peace. This sentiment was shared by both locals and visitors in Ho Chi Minh City during these historic April days.

Thousands of people had lined the streets, eager to witness the parade formations of police, soldiers, and other forces in person. For many in Ho Chi Minh City, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event.
