Belarus celebrates Independence Day

8 июля 2018

On July 3, 1944 during Operation Bagration, the heart of our country, Minsk was liberated from the invaders. From this day we are counting our free and independent life.

Millions of Belarusians watched the parade of military equipment at the main symbol of independence - the Minsk Hero City Stela.

Yermukhamet Yertysbayev, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Kazakhstan to Belarus:

"The Independence Day is associated with a very heroic but at the same time a tragic page in the history of the Belarusian people. We share your feelings and wish the brotherly Belarusian people stability, prosperity, and great success."
