On June 4, 2025, on the Day of Remembrance of Children Who Died as a Result of the Armed Aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, a flash mob "Heavenly Guard" was held in educational institutions of Donetsk region. The initiative was implemented pursuant to a letter from the Office of the President of Ukraine and with the support of the Head of the Donetsk Regional State Administration, Head of the Regional Military Administration Vadym Filashkin.
More than 200 pre-school, general secondary and out-of-school education institutions from 26 communities, inclusive resource centers, educational hubs and locations located in different regions of Ukraine joined the campaign.
Children, teachers, and parents made paper angels, symbols of the souls of innocent children. Individual works, joint panels, collages, and "memory trees" created with love and pain became touching images of grief and hope, reflecting children's dreams, shared sorrow, and faith in Ukraine's peaceful future.
We remember every little angel. We remember the children's hearts that were forever silenced by the war.
