Spain: Franco's family leaves Valley of the Fallen after exhumation

Description

Family members and descendants of Francisco Franco leave the 'Valley of the Fallen' as Spain exhumes the embalmed body of the dictator from a grandiose state mausoleum ahead of its relocation it to a more discreet grave in a country still conflicted over the dictator's decades-long regime. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has made moving Franco's remains a priority since coming to power in June 2018, saying Spain should not "continue to glorify" a man who ruled with an iron fist after the bloody 1936-39 civil war won by his Nationalist forces.
