On May 23, Ukraine marks the Day of Heroes. For many decades, Ukrainians have been honouring the memory of the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the struggle of Ukraine’s freedom and independence.
The Day of Heroes has become reinvigorated since russia’s aggression began in 2014 and escalated into full-scale war in 2022. It now stands as a day to honour those defending Ukraine today - those continuing to work to keep Ukraine’s borders untouchable, independent and free.
This Saturday, we will remember those who have fallen and those who continue to fight for a free and independent Ukraine.
🗓️ Date: 23 May 2026 (Tomorrow)
