Immortal Regiment in Kyrgyzstan going virtual due to coronavirus

AKIPRESS.COM - The 75th anniversary "Immortal Regiment" march, honoring veterans of the World War II, will take place in the form of a virtual march this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The organizers of the action in Kyrgyzstan have urged to put a photo of the veteran relative into the window and play the Victory Day songs on May 9.
Those willing to participate in the action are asked to upload a photo of themselves, along with a snapshot of their veteran relative on the project's website or social networking pages with hashtags ImmortalRegimentatHome, ImmortalRegiment2020, MyRegimentatHome. The post from the social media with the hashtag will automatically get to the website moypolk.ru into the ImmortalRegimentatHome section.
The photographs uploaded to this database will be put together in an automatically generated video sequence, which will allow people to walk alongside the figures of their fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers in a virtual system.
