Russia showed off military power at Victory Day events with 29 world leaders watching. President Mnangagwa sat among top guests as Putin and China's Xi viewed troops marching through Red Square. The May 9 celebration marks 80 years since Nazi Germany lost World War II. Thousands of soldiers from Russia and friendly nations put on displays. Tanks, missiles, and new drone weapons rolled through Moscow streets.

Putin greeted Mnangagwa with a handshake before speeches began. The Russian leader talked about defending his country's values and history. He praised soldiers who fought against Hitler and those serving today. Many Russians came to watch with some thinking about family who died in the war. Julia remembered her grandfather, who never came home from battle.

Russian families cook special meals and attend concerts for this holiday. Students like Sofia spend time with their parents watching fireworks across the city. Military groups from 13 countries joined the parade with their own soldiers. The show ended with jets painting Russia's flag colors across the sky.
