This was reported by Ukrzaliznytsia on Telegram.
“The Light of Bethlehem was successfully delivered to the capital and traveled further across the country,” the message reads.
Ukrzaliznytsia reported that despite the air raid, the ceremony of transferring the Light of Bethlehem took place in a shelter, and after it was over, everyone could take the light to their homes.
This year is the fourth time Ukrzaliznytsia has delivered the light of the Bethlehem Fire across Ukraine. “This tradition, started by the Plast scouting organization, warms the hearts of Ukrainians across the country every year in the cold winter,” Ukrzaliznytsia said.
