Prague Mourns 1968 Victims as Normalization Begins Under Ongoing Warsaw Pact Occupation

Czechoslovakia - Circa 1968: Footage shows Prague after the August 1968 invasion: gunfire silenced as rain washes blood from streets and fresh graves appear, including a 25-year-old mother. Scenes from Liberec, Prostejov, and Kosice show grief. Under normalization, curfew lifts for night trams while tanks still guard squares. Government resumes work; Svoboda and Dubcek meet commanders; Warsaw Pact generals visit the Castle. Parks close, press barred, and the Central Committee pledges to follow Moscow accords.
