LIVE NOW: A projection of “The Cranes Are Flying” is being shown on the Crocus City Hall building in memory of the victims of the terrorist attack

On March 24, the day of national mourning, at 19:55 Moscow time, the projection “The Cranes Are Flying” will appear on the Crocus City Hall building. An endless wedge of cranes rises from the base of the building and flies into the sky. This is how Moscow will honor the memory of those who died during the terrorist attack at the concert complex on March 22.

People's Artist of the USSR Muslim Magomayev, after whom the concert hall was named, is known for performing the song “Cranes” - a ballad about soldiers who become birds after death. The composition is minor, but the main motive in it is hope, the immortality that people gain after death.

Today, everyone can help all those who died in Crocus City Hall gain immortality. To do this, you should fold a paper crane, draw a bird, or create your own version and share it on social networks. For example, put a picture of a crane on your avatar on social networks.

The attack on the Crocus City Hall in the Moscow region was the largest terrorist attack in Russian history since the Beslan school siege in 2004.
