Yes, I'm sure.  Red Hat redistributable releases (eg. 8.0, 9, 10) will
be supported for at least 12 months from their date of release.  8.0
will have been supported for well over a year.  

Red Hat simply can not afford to keep doing the work to patch operating
systems that were released 3 years ago and not receive any revenue from
them.
