Vietnam is marking 50 years since the end of the war that unified the country and brought an end to the US-backed South Vietnamese government. Thousands gathered in Ho Chi Minh City — formerly Saigon — to witness the largest military parade held in decades. The site holds deep historical significance, as it was where North Vietnamese troops stormed the Presidential Palace in 1975, signaling the fall of Saigon and the collapse of South Vietnam.
