City-wide Mourning Period Proposed by Local Deputy
During the 51st session of the Drohobych City Council on June 6, local deputy Marta Slotylo proposed declaring a city-wide mourning period for when soldiers «return on shields» to their hometown. Slotylo suggested canceling mass events, lowering national flags, and refraining from playing loud music. The head of the community, Taras Kuchma, has expressed support for this initiative, and a relevant order will soon be issued.
