November 7 is a solemn date in Spanish history. To begin with, 113 years ago, on November 7, 1823, in Madrid, the leader of the Spanish Revolution, Rafael Rivago, was executed - the one who encouraged the Decembrists, and after his death Pushkin wrote the famous feature about Count Verotnov ("Petrim, flat... "). In 1936, the future Spanish dictator Franco directed his forces to take Madrid on November 7 "to darken this Marxist holiday" and marched through the streets of Madrid on the day of the Bolshevik Revolution. The attack began at 6 a.m. through the Casa de Campo, but the night before on the outskirts of Madrid, the Republican Carnabay fired at an Italian tank that had found a detailed plan of attack. The offensive managed to capture Madrid by March 1939. And finally, 90 years ago, one of the most high-profile republican crimes was committed in Madrid (with all my sympathy for the Spanish Republic). On the eve of Madrid's expected storm, on the night of November 7, the city's Junata Republican prison began mass shootings of inmates of Madrid prisons - members of the Falange, priests, conservative politicians and policemen captured by Montana's brokers. In Spanish history this tragedy was called "Sakas". Prisoners said they were being transferred to another prison, but in fact they were taken to the ruins near the villages of Procatlos de Harama and Torjon de Ardos, where they were shot and buried in communal captures. Shooting without trial continued until December 4 and killed at least 2,000 people. This crime has been faded by Republican memory for years. Many of the bodies have never been found, and still above these are the crosses of the cemetery of the Martyrs of Farklos.
