Victory Day honors WWII heroes and the Urals' pivotal wartime role
Today marks Victory Day, a day of deep significance for the nation. Across the country, people honour the millions who defended their homeland and secured victory in World War II. The occasion serves as a reminder of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring need to protect peace and truth. The Urals Federal District played a vital role in defeating fascism during the war. Its factories and industries produced essential weapons and supplies, helping turn the tide against invasion. Twelve cities in the Urals and Western Siberia still carry the title City of Labor Valor for their contributions.
Every family remembers their soldiers—those who fought on the front lines and those who supported them from home. Gratitude is extended to veterans, workers, and all who witnessed the war’s hardships. Their efforts remain a moral guide, showing how unity and determination can overcome even the greatest challenges. The Great Patriotic War revealed how fragile peace can be. Today, the country continues to defend its sovereignty and resist attempts to distort history. The lessons of the past shape the resolve to protect the future.
On this Victory Day, the nation bows to its heroes—those who fought, those who worked, and those who endured. Their legacy lives on in the values of strength, solidarity, and vigilance. The Urals and all regions remember their role in history, ensuring the sacrifices of the past are never forgotten.
