Trece Martires de Bagumbayan

The title above translates to ***13 Martyrs of Bagumbayan***. **January 11, 1897** (7 days after the 15 martyrs' execution). Another execution was organized by the Spaniards as they were sentenced to death by musketry for collaborating with the anti-colonialism group Katipunan during the Filipino Revolution against Spain. https://read.cash/@rapsantos/quince-martires-del-bicolandia-c1dd06d2
