On the occasion of the celebration of 11 November – Liberation Day of Kumanovo and the 507th anniversary of the city’s existence, flowers were laid today at the Memorial Ossuary in Kumanovo in honour of the fighters who laid down their lives for the city’s freedom.
The delegation of the Ministry of Interior was led by State Secretary Sasho Petrushevski, who, together with the other members of the delegation, paid tribute to the heroes and their sacrifice for freedom.
Following the ceremony, the Ministry of Interior delegation also attended the ceremonial session at the Craftsmen’s Centre, where the traditional November Awards were presented to deserving citizens and legal entities whose work and contributions have left a significant mark on the social life of Kumanovo. The ceremony was enriched with a diverse cultural and artistic programme.
The commemoration of this important date serves as a reminder of Kumanovo’s rich history, heroic past and indomitable spirit, as well as of the obligation to preserve the historical heritage, traditions and values that form part of the city’s collective memory.
