We remember those who won the Great Victory at the cost of their lives. It is our duty to preserve this memory. After 80 years from the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the blurry events get clarified today. Searchers of the 52nd battalion of the Armed Forces found the remains of 144 Red Army soldiers in the territory of the former Stalag-352 concentration camp in Masyukovshchina. Among them there are personal belongings of private Anisimov, a native of Pskov Region. The medallion and a note with personal data will be reburied in the soldier's homeland. First, it was decided to consecrate them. The ceremony of sprinkling and transferring artifacts to Belarusian youth, which is entrusted with the mission to transfer the artifacts to the homeland, was held in the crypt of the Memorial Church in Honor of All Saints in Minsk.

Already today, the artifacts will be delivered to Pskov Region, where the We Remember Forum starts. The remains will be reburied in the village of Tyamsha near Pskov, where the name of private Anisimov is engraved on the monument. And a delegation of young people will return to Belarus with a capsule with earth from the burial places of Soviet soldiers who died in Pskov land during the war.
