Belarus to hold nationwide minute of silence on June 22 for WWII victims

On June 22 at 12:00, Belarus will hold a nationwide minute of silence to honor those who died during the Great Patriotic War. The solemn moment will be marked by the sound of a metronome and a requiem melody broadcast on TV and radio, in military units, on streets, squares, and other public places. Church bells will toll across the country, and transport will sound warning signals. In some areas, traffic will come to a halt. 🇧🇾#BELARUS_REMEMBERS! We remember everyone! Let us pause for a minute to remember all who passed into immortality and left us the legacy of life!
