On February 20, Ukraine commemorates the Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred — people who gave their lives for the freedom, dignity, and European choice of our country during the Revolution of Dignity. It was during these February days of 2014 that the confrontation between the Ukrainian people and the then regime reached its apogee.
At the Vasyl Stefanyk Carpathian National University, people traditionally gathered near the commemorative Obelisk dedicated to students and teachers who died in the struggle for Ukraine’s independence to pay tribute to the eternally young student of the Faculty of Philosophy, Roman Huryk.
Those present honored the Hero’s memory by laying flowers and lighting lamps at the memorial Obelisk. During a moment of silence, everyone mentally thanked those who gave their lives for Ukraine.
