The action Belarus Remembers. We Remember Everyone has widely unfolded in different parts of the Minsk region today. Throughout the day, flowers are laid to obelisks and monuments in large cities and in small villages and settlements. Smolevichi and Logoisk districts were among the first districts to pick up the patriotic baton on Independence Day. The locals gathered today on the Mound of Glory - a landmark place for the whole country - to honor the memory of those killed during the Great Patriotic War. Numerous people with flowers are visiting Khatyn today. Delegations from different areas, labor collectives, schoolchildren, students, athletes come here to lay flowers at the Eternal Flame and remember those events that should not be forgotten.
Even the drizzling rain and the cool weather could not change the plans of those who decided to pay tribute to the memory of the heroes who died during the war. The Belarusian village, which cannot be found on any geographical map, is not forgotten today. Khatyn was destroyed in the spring of 1943.
Together with children from local schools, young activists of the Russian patriotic movement from Rostov-on-Don came to the memorial as well.
Events of the action Belarus Remembers. We Remember Everyone will be held throughout the day. The Independence Day will end in the Minsk region with a great concert, which will be held in Nesvizh this year.
