El Salvador Solidarity Groups: Free the Cuban Five!San Salvador, Dec 24. -Solidarity organizations in El Salvador are holding another a demonstration Wednesday to demand freedom for the five Cuban antiterrorists imprisoned in the United States since 1998.

The solidarity rally will be held in the provincial capital of San Vicente, about 60 kilometers east of San Salvador, organizer Edgar Chevarria told Prensa Latina.

Chevarria, of the Cuba Solidarity Coordinating Committee in that city, also explained the activists will also climb Las Delicias Mountain, where they will place a plaque demanding the release of the Cuban Five, as they are known worldwide.

On the mountain, very close to San Vicente, they will also place the flags of Cuba and El Salvador.

The site is visible from most of San Vicente and for those travelling by the Pan-American road, explained other members of the group.

A march and a vigil was held last Friday in the capital demanding the release of Antonio Guerrero, Fernando González, Gerardo Hernández, René González and Ramón Labañino, arrested and imprisoned in the United States for gathering information about anti-Cuba terrorist groups. (Prensa Latina)
