Slavyansk is preparing for the solemn celebration of the liberation of the city from the pro-Russian militants. It is reported by the correspondent of OstroV.

Now people gather in the central square, the entrance to which is blocked by military vehicles. In this case, people go to the area only through the metal detector. Such special safety measures are related to the arrival of President Petro Poroshenko.

Despite the fact that today is a working day, people gather on the square with the children. People are standing in an open area under the scorching sun.
