The bodies of 32 Cubans killed during the US military invention in Venezuela have arrived in Cuba for military ceremonies and burials.

The Cubans were working as protection officers for Nicolás Maduro, when he was removed from Venezuelan soil and taken to the US to face drug trafficking charges.

The soldiers’ remains will be received with military honours and taken to the Ministry of the Armed Forces in Havana, where the public can pay their respects.

The BBC’s Will Grant is in Cuba’s capital city, where people lined the streets to pay tribute.
