This was reported by the NMMC, writes UNN.
The state institution "National Military Memorial Cemetery" won another victory in court. The Kyiv Court of Appeal, having comprehensively studied the case materials and the arguments of the parties, made a legal and justified decision — to reject the appeal of the public organization "Markhalivka. Support" and other applicants who tried to challenge the decision of the Kyiv-Sviatoshyn District Court of Kyiv Oblast of July 9, 2025.
It is noted that the July ruling canceled the interim measures, by which individual plaintiffs tried, in particular, to prohibit honorary burials of fallen Defenders of Ukraine on the territory of the Memorial Cemetery.
