President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reminded that every year on January 20, Ukrainians honor the defenders of Donetsk Airport — people who held the defense for 242 days and did not surrender, while surrounded and under constant attacks.

The Head of State thanked everyone who stands with Ukraine and helps it.
