Several sabotage and terrorist attacks were prevented in Belarus. And all are associated with minors. Young people are the most active part of the population. Due to their special perception of the environment, including changes in the political, socio-economic spheres, they are most susceptible to extremist manifestations.
With the development of information and communication technologies, the number of threats and illegal acts, including extremist ones, committed using the Internet, which is the most effective means of mass information influence on young people, has increased. A big misconception today is to continue to believe that in the bottomless pit of the Internet you can cover your tracks with impunity.

Accompanied by a guide, the children got acquainted with the expositions of the museum, learned a lot of interesting things about the great feat of our compatriots during the war, real stories of life and struggle of the Belarusian people in the difficult war years. Authentic documents of the war years, a huge exposition of military equipment and weapons, multimedia exhibits, personal belongings and awards of participants in the Great Patriotic War - all this immerses you in the atmosphere of those years, in the tragic years of our Motherland. The exposition of military equipment and weapons made a special impression: the famous Katyusha, T-34 tanks, small arms and artillery weapons, a military transport aircraft, etc.
The Great Patriotic War is one of the most terrible periods for all mankind. She claimed the lives of a huge number of people. Pain and suffering is all that war brings with it. The victory was not easy, and it is precisely in order for people to remember these events that such museums are being created. And our duty is to keep the memory of this feat, to bow before the steadfastness and courage of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, to love and appreciate the world and our Motherland.
