On October 20, students of study group 5k9391 of the Minsk Radio Engineering College visited the “Monument to the Grieving Mother, Soldiers and Partisans who gave their lives for the freedom and independence of our homeland” and honored the memory of those killed during the Great Patriotic War with a minute of silence.

In the north-eastern part of Chelyuskintsev Park there is a mass grave of soldiers of the Soviet Army, underground fighters and civilians killed by the Nazi invaders in 1941-1944. According to rough estimates, about 10 thousand people were buried there.

Belarusians have a strong collective memory of the tragic events of the Great Patriotic War. The heroic feat of our ancestors – those who fought on the front line, who selflessly worked in the rear, every day bringing the Great Victory closer – is a sacred gift from our grandfathers and great-grandfathers. Our sacred duty is to continue to protect and preserve the undistorted history of the events of that time, and pass it on to future generations.
