In May 2025, Russia will celebrate a significant event — the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. On the eve of the anniversary, an all-Russian website was launched — https://may9.ru /. It contains information about key events of the war years, about hero cities, and you can also view an extensive photo archive and themed films.
Special attention is paid to personal stories. The site contains home photo albums and letters from the front from the participants of military operations. These materials help to better understand what people went through in those terrible times.
The "Promotions" section is a calendar of events that will take place across the country in honor of the anniversary. Here you will find information about "Victory Readings", "Immortal Regiment", "St. George Ribbon" and many other events.
You can also get up-to-date information about all festive events from the official VKontakte social media groups (https://vk.com/may9_ru ), Odnoklassniki (https://ok.ru/may9 ) and the telegram channel "80 years of the Great Victory" (https://t.me/may_9_ru). Unfortunately, every day there are fewer and fewer participants in the Great Patriotic War. Those to whom we can say "Thank you for the Victory!"
