It is traditionally celebrated on the 9th of May. The holiday marks the capitulation of Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union in World War II in 1945. It became the end of the Great Patriotic War for the USSR, which lost more than 25 million citizens in the four years of fighting and starvation. Every year all cit- ies across the coun- try have lots of pa- rades and celebra- tions. Many people have lost close rela- tives and friends in this terrible war. Al- most every family in Russia has a person who didn’t return from the battlefield. On this day we are grateful to our saviors, to those who sacrificed their lives for us. There are some traditions that we follow. We give flowers to veterans and lay wreaths at war memorial sites. At home, we gather around a festive table to honor survivors and honor those who passed away. Photos by Vera V. Izyurova, Elena V. Vatoropina, Maria A. Udintseva, Natalia S.
