On September 30, 2024, the 115th rally in support of Ukraine took place in the heart of Lithuania's capital, at Cathedral Square in Vilnius. The event was dedicated to the Day of Defenders of Ukraine.

The rally began with a moment of silence. Words of gratitude to Ukraine’s defenders were expressed by Viktor Hamotskyi, Deputy Ambassador of Ukraine to Lithuania, and Valdas Bartkevičius, Head of the International Friends of Ukraine Foundation. Participants also heard an online address from Volodymyr Konchyts, Deputy Commander of the 20th Separate Special Forces Battalion. The event continued with a heartfelt performance by Ukrainian children, students of the Vilnius branch of the International Ukrainian School.

Special thanks go to Arkadijus Vinokuras, a true friend of Ukraine, for initiating weekly Monday rallies in support of Ukraine.
