“War was a very scary word. Often soldiers had to carry out international duty, following the orders of the government and protecting the interests of a friendly state. Unfortunately, thousands of young soldiers were killed in armed conflicts at the territories of other countries. But they honestly performed their duties, proving loyalty to the historical traditions of their homeland. In memory of the heroic deed of our military, and paying tribute to their heroism, 15 February is considered as the Day of memory of soldiers-internationalists”, – Natalia Dukhan, the head of Lisichansk center said.

At the end of the evening the soldiers – internationalists got gifts from the volunteers of the Center.
