The event took place on Lenin Square. Here, on May 9, the first Victory Parade in the history of Donetsk will take place with the participation of regular troops and military equipment.
The rehearsal was held openly and anyone could watch it. An exception was made only for road transport: for safety reasons, passage along Artema Street was blocked for several hours.
At approximately 17:30 Moscow time, units of various branches of the army of the Donetsk People's Republic began practicing foot maneuvers. And 40-45 minutes later, a column of military equipment passed along Artema Street, opposite the already installed podium for the leadership and guests of the republic.
In total, 28 military vehicles of various types will take part in the Parade, according to the organizers.
As stated by the Minister of Defense of the DPR, Vladimir Kononov, the capital of the republic has thoroughly prepared for this historical event: “Donetsk is ready to celebrate this great holiday. Today's rehearsal is a direct confirmation of this. The militia fighters successfully marched in “boxes” along the main street; there are no complaints about the passage of equipment.”
There are only two days left to wait and see the first Victory Parade in the capital of Donbass in all its glory.
