HAVANA, Nov. 28 (UPI) -- Havana's Plaza of the Revolution was opened Monday for Cubans who wish to pay their respects to Fidel Castro, while a dissident group has called off a weekly protest to avoid conflict with mourners.
The Plaza of the Revolution was scheduled to be open from 9 a.m. until 10 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday. A large banner of Castro as a young revolutionary was hung over Cuba's National Library to overlook the plaza.
