Representatives of the district administration, labor collectives, public organizations, veterans, and young people came to pay tribute to those who defended the independence of our country.
On this day, exactly 81 years ago, on June 30, during the Minsk Operation, the troops of the 1st Belorussian Front liberated the Lyubansky, Krasnoslobodsky, Pleshchenitsky, Kopatkevichsky, and Slutsk districts. The city of Slutsk was taken. Minsk was just a short distance away.
The “Memory Calendar. Memory Book” event is traditionally held in the capital from June 22 to July 3, symbolizing not only a tribute to veterans, but also fostering a sense of gratitude and responsibility for preserving historical truth.
The event participants laid flowers at the Victory Monument and honored the memory of the defenders of the Fatherland with a minute of silence. At the end of the event, everyone was able to write the names of their relatives in the symbolic “Memory Book” located near the Victory Monument and express their gratitude to the fallen soldiers.
Participation in the “Calendar of Memory. Book of Memory” event at the Victory Monument was a vivid example of the importance of remembering the past for the sake of the future. We are proud of our heroes and pledge to continue the traditions of patriotism, so that the memory of the Great Victory lives on in the hearts of new generations, and our country continues to develop and prosper through our collective efforts.
