Руската общност в Торонто празнува Деня на Победата

Toronto's Russian community and World War II veterans gathered at the city's Soviet memorial, Saturday, to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Victory Day and pay their respects to those who died to ensure the defeat of the Nazis. Hundreds came together for the rally, including many veterans of the former Soviet Union's Red Army, with many younger participants dressing up in the Soviet military attire to mark the day. Children went on to present the WWII heroes with flowers, many laying floral decorations at the memorial to Russian soldiers who fell before Victory Day in 1945. Millions of people took part in similar commemoration services throughout the world on Saturday to mark V-Day's 70th anniversary.
