February 15 is the day of the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan. This year marks the 35th anniversary of this historical event. On this occasion, today in the Samar region flowers were laid at the memorial plaque dedicated to the internationalist soldiers who died in Afghanistan. A round table dedicated to veterans of the Afghan war was held at the Samara Rural Cultural Center. Our veterans were presented with commemorative medals and letters of gratitude “35 years since the withdrawal of the Soviet Army from Afghanistan.”
