Russia celebrates the 80th anniversary of the Soviet triumph in the Great Patriotic War against Nazi Germany

Military parades and other ceremonial events paying tribute to the valor and sacrifice of the Soviet people are taking place across Russia, with the centerpiece event kicking off in Moscow at 10am local time.

Thousands of troops and dozens of military vehicles will parade through Moscow's iconic Red Square on May 9 to mark the 80th anniversary of victory over Nazi Germany and its collaborators.

For over a decade, Victory Day has also featured a massive civilian march known as the Immortal Regiment, during which people carry portraits of their relatives who fought the Nazis. Dozens of Immortal Regiment marches have already taken place across the world over the past week - including in China, Africa, and Latin America - leading up to Russia's Victory Day celebrations.
