Pro-Ukrainian rally held in Melitopol

That's according to the Ria-Melitopol news site, Ukrinform reports.

The information about the event was sent to journalists of pro-Ukrainian media outlets.

"We are currently fighting in the occupied territory. And your information support is very necessary. Melitopol will stage a mass rally! This is our home, the orcs can't break us. We are not afraid of weapons, kidnappings and threats, we are not afraid of anything because we are on our own land! But the orcs don't like protests. Let's spoil their mood, "the announcement said.

It was announced that the rally will take place today, May 29, at 12.00. The venue was reported two hours before the rally started (each participant received a personal message about the venue). The participants in the rally were asked to take yellow ribbons.

Melitopol has been under temporary Russian occupation since late February.
