In Lviv, as every year, the victims of the Sknyliv tragedy will be honored. However, this time, due to restrictions imposed by martial law, the commemorative events will take place in a slightly different format than usual.

In past years, events honoring the victims of the Sknyliv disaster took place in two stages. First, they performed the Divine Liturgy and Parastas for the dead in the chapel of All Saints of the Ukrainian People and in memory of the victims of the Sknyliv tragedy near the resort, and then those present went to the “Segment of memory at the airfield”, where they laid flowers and lit lamps.
This year, due to the war, this format of commemoration is impossible, due to the safety of those present. Therefore, on July 27, on the 20th anniversary of the Sknyliv disaster, a service will be held in the Church of the Resurrection of Christ (319a Horodotska St.). The prayer will be led by Metropolitan of Lviv UGCC His Eminence Vladyka Ihor. Start at 11:00.
