Kharkiv commemorates Chernobyl heroes

‘39 years have passed since then, but the memory of those tragic events is alive. It is very important today that we gather together with the Chernobyl victims, because back then these people protected us from a plague that threatened the whole world. Some of them laid down their lives for us to live. And it is important to know this. And especially now, when there is a brutal war going on. I am very grateful today to all the Chernobyl victims who help, volunteer, joined the Armed Forces, and those who could not come but are also in Kharkiv, working. This is an example for all of us,’ said Igor Terekhov.
