The activists noted that for security reasons, they had hung the flag a little earlier, but it was still there.

"Crimea is Ukraine! And no fake elections, passportisation, or forced mobilization will help the ruscists," the Yellow Ribbon says.

The event is timed to coincide with the Day of Unity, which is celebrated on 16 February. The holiday was established by the President of Ukraine in 2022 amid warnings of a possible full-scale Russian aggression.
