Winter Route" starts in Vitebsk Region

New patriotic labor project of the Belarusian Republican Youth Union "Winter Route" has started in Vitebsk Region. The starting point was the monument to the first builders of Novopolotsk "The First Tent", and today activists are working at the facilities of Dubrovno District. The students cleared the central part of Rylenka memorial from snow and branches. The complex was erected in 1973 at Rylenka fraternal cemetery. The memory of Soviet soldiers of the 11th Guards and 31st troop, who died in fierce battles from October 1943 to June 1944, is immortalized here. The names of more than 9 000 soldiers are on the memorial. In memory of the feat, the participants of the "Winter Route" lit lamps.

The students will meet with Dubrovno schoolchildren, clear the Military Glory Park from snow. In the evening, guests will put on a concert for the residents of the district.
