Yesterday I was in Dagestan – in Makhachkala and Derbent. That was case when I couldn’t help but come. You all understand the tragic reason. I will return (https://eng.yabloko.ru/yabokos-statement-on-the-situation-in-dagestan ) to the substantive side of the problem more than once in the future. But now I just want to share the photos. Perhaps they will convey the atmosphere and feelings.

UPD: We have to cancel our traditional “1418 Candles Per Each Day of War” action, since access to the “1941” memorial plaque, where we usually gather, will be limited due to preparations for the opening of the “Candle of Memory” campaign organised by the authorities.
Yabloko will light 1418 candles to commemorate the victims of the Second World War on the eve of Adolf Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union, 21 June.
