They will also be used during the annual “Light a Candle” remembrance campaign held on the fourth Saturday of November to honor victims of the 1932-33 Holodomor. “We are forming a new culture of remembrance,” Svyrydenko said. “The daily minute of silence is an important part of it and a sign of our respect for fallen defenders and civilians.” Ukraine introduced the nationwide minute of silence in 2022 following Russia’s full-scale invasion to honor military personnel and civilians killed in the war. On Feb. 11, the Ukrainian parliament adopted a law formally establishing a nationwide minute of silence, which President Volodymyr Zelensky signed into law in March. Since April 22, Kyiv has announced a daily minute of silence through loudspeakers across the capital, as well as in the metro and public transport. Notifications are also sent through the Kyiv Digital app.
