The military parade, which traditionally celebrates the victory over Nazi Germany, was significantly reduced this year due to security concerns. Out of fear of potential Ukrainian attacks, the event proceeded without the usual tanks and missiles.
Mobile internet was disabled during the event to ensure safety. This occurred in the context of an extreme security presence that protected the Kremlin chief during the parade.
According to Euronews, the parade was greatly diminished, reflecting uncertainty about the military situation. Other media outlets, such as t-online.de and watson, also reported on the absence of heavy military vehicles and the altered nature of the celebrations.
