19.06.2026
On 22 June at 12:00, Belarus will commemorate those who died during the Great Patriotic War with a nationwide moment of silence, BelTA has learned.

On television and radio, in military units, and on streets, squares, and other public places across the country, the sound of a metronome and a requiem melody will echo in mourning. At the same time, church bells will toll, transport will sound warning horns, and in some places movement will be temporarily halted.
