Today marks ten years since the battles for the airport ended, which lasted from May 2014. January 20 is the Day of Tribute to the Defenders of Donetsk Airport.
"Today we remember the heroism of our cyborgs. 242 days of defending the Donetsk Airport. They held on to the very end in a place where it seemed impossible. This is a story of extraordinary courage. Of people who endured where concrete could not. Honor and glory to everyone who fought for Ukraine", - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky noted on social media on January 20.
