The remains and belongings of 43 Chinese People's Volunteer Army who died during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea?(1950-53) will be returned to China soon from the Republic of Korea, China's Ministry of Veterans Affairs said on Friday.

The ministry said the handover will take place on Nov 28, marking the 11th repatriation of CPV martyrs' remains since 2014 when the two countries signed the handover agreement.

Both nations have agreed to continue their cooperation in the repatriation efforts, it added.
