President sends Victory Day greetings

President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has extended Victory Day greetings to the people of the Maldives.

In a social media post marking Victory Day, the President shared a poem celebrating the courage and determination of the Maldivian people. In the verses shared, he highlighted how the people of the Maldives stood united to protect their nation and their flag.

Additionally, the President urged Maldivians to remember those who sacrificed their blood and lives in defence of the country.

On November 3, 1988, nineteen Maldivians were martyred in an attack orchestrated with the support of a small group of Maldivians. Among them, eleven civilians and eight soldiers gave their lives while defending the nation.

Today marks the 36th Victory Day.
