  • Nationalists’ party All for Latvia/FF-LNIM conducts an event commemorating warriors who helped to liberate Limbazi from the Red Army on 4 July 1941

Vesti Segodnya reports that the Limbazi (town in the northern part of Latvia) branch of the nationalists’ party All for Latvia/FF-LNIM called town’s residents to take part in an event commemorating warriors who helped to liberate Limbazi from the Red Army on 4 July 1941. The newspaper notes that on this day the Nazi troops entered the town and later arrested and murdered “unreliable” residents and Jews. None of local Jews survived in the town. The Simon Wiesenthal Centre criticizes such event in Limbazi, especially knowing that it is held on 4 July – the official commemoration day of the Holocaust victims in Latvia.
