Dress rehearsals for the military parade to mark the 79th victory anniversary in the Great Patriotic War took place in Russia's Yekaterinburg and Volgograd on Tuesday, showcasing the precision and readiness of the participants.

Footage from the event reveals servicemen marching with flags and banners in their hands, while military vehicles navigate through the main squares of the cities.

Media reports indicate that around 2,300 people took part in the Volgograd rehearsal, including parade crews from the city’s military garrison, law enforcement officers, students of the cadet corps, and representatives of the all-Russian military-patriotic movement "Yunarmiya." Approximately 70 units of military equipment participated in the rehearsal, displaying the power and diversity of Russia's armed forces.

In Yekaterinburg, law enforcement officers, cadets, and a 150-member military band marched through the city’s main square.

The Victory Day Parade is a traditional event held on May 9 across Russia, with the main celebration taking place in Moscow's Red Square. The day commemorates the end of World War II and the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany. Celebrations extend beyond Russia to many other countries around the world that also observe the day in honour of the sacrifices made during the war.
