#Nicaragua | Thousands gathered in Managua to commemorate the 47th anniversary of the Sandinista Popular Revolution. Citizens filled the main avenues, waving national and FSLN flags during a night of cultural displays, musical performances, and fireworks. The historical commemoration reaffirmed the country's commitment to popular sovereignty and social justice.
