Victory Day, also known as Dan Pobede in Serbian, is a holiday observed on May 9th to commemorate the victory over fascism and the end of World War II in Europe. It aligns with the celebration of Victory Day across many other former Soviet and European countries.
The historic significance of this day stems from the formal acceptance by the Allies of Nazi Germany's unconditional surrender on May 8, 1945. However, due to time zone differences, it is celebrated on May 9th in Serbia and other Eastern European countries.
Serbia, as part of the former Yugoslavia, had a significant role in the anti-fascist struggle during World War II. Yugoslav Partisans, led by Josip Broz Tito, contributed to the defeat of Axis forces in the Balkans.
