With a minute of silence, to the sound of sirens, at noon sharp on 2 June, Bulgaria pays tribute to the heroism of Hristo Botev and all people who laid down their lives for freedom and independence.
Patriotically-minded Bulgarians climbed Okolchitsa peak where they bowed down to the heroism of Hristo Botev and his rebels. Due to the Covid restrictions this year there was no official programme.

A heartfelt tribute to all those who laid down their lives for the freedom of their mother country!” President Rumen Radev wrote on Facebook.
