Today, November 29, Albania marks the 79th anniversary of Liberation from fascist occupation

This November 29, Albania celebrates the 79th anniversary of the liberation of the country from the fascist occupation.

From April 7, 1939 to November 29, 1944, Albania was occupied by fascist Italy, and after its capitulation, in the fall of 1943, it was occupied by German forces.

At the end of November 1944, after the Liberation of Tirana on November 17 and the main part of Northern Albania, the city of Shkodra remained to be liberated, which was liberated on November 29, 1944.

Even today will be marked with commemorative activities by the central and local authorities.

Everything will start with tributes at the martyrs' cemeteries, to continue with the activities planned for the White Night.

Liberation Day continues to divide politics, as the current majority sees November 29 as a commemorative date, while the opposition claims the last German left on November 28. (A2 Televizion)
