At the same the Free Cuba Foundation issued a worldwide call to action today for the one year anniversay of the death of Orlando Zapata Tamayo and the 15th anniversary of the extrajudicial executions of Carlos Costa, Pablo Morales, Mario De La Peña and Armando Alejandre Jr. on February 24, 1996 in the Brothers to the Rescue shoot down.
