Uruguay bids farewell to one of its most iconic leaders. Former President José Mujica has died at the age of 89 after a battle with cancer. He passed away at his modest home on a small farm on the outskirts of Montevideo, with his wife and fellow revolutionary, Lucía Topolansky, by his side. Mujica was widely respected for his humility, having donated most of his salary during his presidency and choosing to live simply.
