Flash mob was held in Ufa in support of Russian participants of Tokyo Olympics

On the square in front of the Ufa-Arena palace, activists of the regional movement "Patriot" held the "We are the champions!" campaign supporting Russian athletes participating in the Tokyo Olympic Games.

More than 500 residents of the capital of the republic took part in the campaign. With flags, patriotic banners, and portraits of athletes, the participants did a warm-up, held a flash mob with chants, and together sang the Russian anthem and Queen's song "We are the champions".

At the same time, activists of the movement launched a challenge for the Day of the Athlete on social media. To participate, one needs to complete two tasks - take a selfie with an image of one of the Russian athletes - participants/winners/prize-winners of the Tokyo Olympics and post on social media with the hashtags #AlgaPatrioty #FizkultPatriot.

The second task is to shoot a 30-45 second video about personal exercise or one of the sports and also post it on social media, adding the hashtags #AlgaPatrioty #FizkultPatriot. The organizers will mark the most creative videos.

Recall that the XXXII Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo will end on August 8. At the moment, there are 58 medals in the medal count of Russian athletes. Bashkortostan was represented at the Games by five athletes - fencers Adelina Zagidullina and Timur Safin, slalom rower Alsu Minazova and rowers in kayaks and canoes, who are competing for Bashkortostan in the parallel competition, Alexander Sergeev and Varvara Baranova.
