Solemn laying flowers to the monuments to F. A. Grinkevich and K. A. Gurov was held this morning, on May 7, in the capital of the DPR.
Veterans of the great Patriotic war, the head of the city administration of Donetsk Igor Martynov, head of administration of Voroshilovsky city district Vladislav Latyntsev, as well as students of schools of the city participated in the event.
Despite the rain, many people gathered in the square near the monument. A brass band played. Students in the pioneer forage caps and ties, lined up a live corridor, were holding flowers and red balls, meeting veterans, shouting “Thanks for Victory!” Cadets of Donetsk combined arms command school were at the monuments honor guard in dress uniforms. The mood was festive.
Veterans along with the mayor and the head of administration of the Central district laid flowers to the monuments. During flower-laying gun salute sounded.
Recall that last year the flower-laying at the monuments to Grinkevich and Gurov was on May 9, on the Victory Day. But this year, according to Martynov, a lot of different events are scheduled for May, 9 and therefore they decided to conduct the laying on before.
