On the 81st anniversary of the complete liberation of Leningrad from the Nazi blockade, Vladimir Putin is taking part in commemorative events held in St Petersburg

As per custom, the President laid flowers at the Landmark Stone monument, which is part of the Nevsky Pyatachok memorial. It was here, at a small, three-kilometre section of the front line south of Leningrad, that the outnumbered Red Army soldiers held back enemy troops, preventing the Nazis and their allies from reaching the city.

Leningrad endured being surrounded from almost 900 days. Its siege by Nazi forces lasted for 872 days, from September 8, 1941 to January 27, 1944.

The photos of the event are available on the Kremlin's official website.

For our entire country, the Victory of Leningrad will forever remain a triumph of life, courage, and the spiritual strength of our people.

We will always remember that it was the Soviet people who brought life, peace, and freedom to humanity through their heroism and at the cost of immense sacrifices and irreparable losses.
