Students presented flowers to the children of war, who were present at the performance. The veterans were surrounded by a line of students, holding photographs of the dead in the fields of the World War II. Then the literary and musical composition «We remember, are proud and honor!» was performed by the students of Donetsk State Medical University. Those present honored the memory of the deceased teachers, staff and students of Donetsk National Medical University by a minute of silence.
