Berlin court permits partial use of Russian flags on May 9
A court in Berlin has partially lifted a ban on the use of Russian flags during Victory in Europe Day events on May 8 and 9, local law enforcement reported on Twitter on May 7.
"Berlin's Administrative Court allowed, among other things, the hanging of Russian flags on the Soviet memorial on May 9," the message reads.
Berlin police added that in the morning, on May 7, they appealed this decision.
Earlier, activists in Germany overturned a similar ban on the display of Ukrainian flags.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
