“In the framework of the All-Russian project“ We Together ”, at 19:00 after a minute of silence, residents of the whole country sang the song“ Victory Day ”on their balconies,” RIA Novosti quoted the press service of the Center for the Development of Cultural Initiatives.

It is noted that famous artists and musical groups, choirs of all age groups, volunteers, as well as residents of all regions of the country joined the action.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed participants in the Immortal Regiment rally, which this year takes place online due to the threat of the coronavirus, and promised that Russians with portraits of their loved ones who had participated in the war would still be walking along Red Square.

The organizers of the “Immortal Regiment Online” campaign announced the completion of the acceptance of applications for participation in the virtual march. A total of 2.8 million profiles were received.
