Founded in 1844 at the time of independence, the institution has evolved alongside land forces to ensure maritime defense. Speakers including Juan Daniel Balc\u00e1cer and Antoliano Peralta highlighted the navy\u2019s historical role in state-building and its adaptation to modern security threats. Founding figures such as Juan Bautista Cambiaso, Juan Bautista Maggiolo and Juan Alejandro Acosta were also honored for their contributions to early naval operations. Border: heightened surveillance with advanced technology At the same time, border monitoring along Haiti has intensified. The CESFRONT has deployed advanced drones, including the DJI Matrice 30T, equipped with thermal imaging and laser measurement systems. These devices enable continuous monitoring of sensitive areas, improving detection of illicit activities such as trafficking and irregular crossings. Meanwhile, construction of the border wall is progressing in Dajab\u00f3n, with several kilometers already completed. Additional infrastructure, including surveillance towers, is under development, with planned expansion toward El\u00edas Pi\u00f1a and Jiman\u00ed. Memory: Jet Set tragedy continues to resonate On a different front, national memory remains marked by the Jet Set nightclub collapse. One year after the disaster, which left 236 dead and nearly 180 injured, families and survivors gathered for a commemorative ceremony. The mass, led by Rogelio Cruz, served as a moment of remembrance and a call for accountability over alleged negligence. Participants displayed portraits of victims and paid tribute to rescue teams who worked for nearly 59 hours following the collapse. The movement \u201cJusticia Jet Set\u201d continues to demand full transparency and judicial accountability, urging authorities to establish responsibility and deliver justice.
