A traditional commemoration event took place at the Ceremonial Square of the Brest Fortress to mark the 76th anniversary of the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. Taking part in the ceremony were thousands of residents and guests of Brest, the city and oblast authorities, MPs, war veterans and the youth. Servicemen placed wreaths at the monument and border guards let flowers float on the Bug River. A minute of silence was observed in tribute to the memory of the heroes.
