Representatives of Ukrainian community and Latvian activists in Riga paid tribute to the Ukrainian servicemen killed in the confrontation with the Russian aggressor.
As an Ukrinform correspondent reports, more than ten people laid flowers to the Freedom Monument on the Liberty Square in the center of the Latvian capital. They brought flags of Ukraine, Latvia as well as posters reading “Ilovaisk. August 29, 2014”, “We remember”, “Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!”
At the end of August of 2014, Russian troops invaded the territory of Ukraine and besieged the Ukrainian troops near Ilovaisk.
