A huge letter Z, which has become a symbol of the Russian military, is reflected in an office building in a street in Moscow, Russia, Friday, May 6, 2022. Red Soviet flags and orange-and-black striped military ribbons are on display in Russian cities and towns. Neighborhoods are staging holiday concerts. Flowers are being laid by veterans' groups at monuments to the Great Patriotic War, as World War II is known in the country. At first glance, preparations for Monday's celebration of Victory Day, marking the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, seem to be the same as ever. But the mood this year is very different, because Russian troops are fighting and dying again. (AP Photo/Alexander Zemlianichenko)
