In Russia, Thursday is Victory Day, which marks the World War II victory over Nazi Germany. The traditional Victory Day military parade starts at Moscow’s Red Square at 10 a.m. Finnish time. This year, the parade typically includes more than 9,000 people and 70 military vehicles, with soldiers fighting in Russia’s “special operation” in Ukraine also participating. The event is broadcast live by HS.
Despite the celebrations in Moscow, the military parade has been canceled in some regions for security reasons. Crimea, which Russia has occupied since 2014, has canceled its parade, along with the region of Belgorod near the Ukrainian border. These restrictions were announced in April by Tass and Knowledge.
The parade cancellation in certain regions highlights the ongoing tensions and conflicts surrounding Victory Day celebrations in Russia. The event serves as a reminder of the historical significance of World War II and the impact it continues to have on global politics and military relations.
HS’s Moscow correspondent, Jenni Jeskanen, is following the day’s events in Moscow. She reports that while tensions remain high surrounding Victory Day celebrations in Russia, many are hoping for a peaceful resolution to these conflicts.
In conclusion, while there may be restrictions on certain regions due to ongoing conflicts surrounding Victory Day celebrations in Russia, it is important to remember that this event serves as a reminder of the historical significance of World War II and its impact on global politics and military relations today.
