Thousands gathered in Red Square in Moscow to mark the 75th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany.

The traditional Victory Day Parade was originally due to be held on May 9, but was postponed for more than a month due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The celebrations went ahead despite Russia surpassing 600,000 cases of Covid-19 infections.

This year’s event is particularly important for President Vladimir Putin, who seeks a boost in popularity ahead of the upcoming constitutional referendum on extending his time in office.
