What a holiday today: signs, traditions and ban on the day

June 22 is a special date for Ukrainians. It is not associated with the celebrations, because it was on this day in 1941 that the invasion of Nazi Germany during the Second World War began. In Ukraine, the memory of millions of dead during the war is commemorated every year, as our country has suffered one of the greatest losses: about 8 million Ukrainians have been victims of occupation, fighting, bombing and repression.

What is the church holiday today

According to the newlyan calendar, the believers honor the memory of Bishop Eusebius Samosatsky. And in the old style, this day is remembered by St. Cyril of Alexandria, one of the Fathers of the Church and Christian theologians.
