In August 1982, the UN General Assembly decided to celebrate this day in memory of Palestinian and Lebanese children killed by Israeli bombing. The purpose of this holiday is to draw the attention of the world community to the suffering of children subjected to physical and moral violence during military conflicts.

June 4 in Russia is an occasion to congratulate people who have chosen a responsible and, moreover, well-paid job. They are not afraid of heights and can easily carry multi-ton loads from place to place. These people are crane operators. Their professional holiday still exists at an unofficial level.

Humor, irony and satire help us come to terms with the small imperfections of life and fight blatant manifestations of injustice. In the Soviet Union, the Krokodil magazine exposed bribe-takers, bureaucrats, parasites and hacks, and criticized incompetent low- and middle-level managers. The first issue, in the form of a supplement with illustrations to the Rabochiy newspaper, was published on June 4, 1922.

The ancient Slavic holiday Yarilo Mokry can also be found in other original names: Tribogov day, Troyan, Troyan tonsure, Holy Day. It is important that it is on this day that spring is put to rest, and the red, fertile summer comes into force. The Slavs believed that with the arrival of summer, Yarilo-Vesen, the eternally young God of the Sun, gives way to the generous Trisvetly Dazhdbog.

A spoiler (from the English to spoil - “poison”, “spoil”) makes getting acquainted with a love and adventure novel less exciting, and deprives the intrigue of watching a thriller or drama. The creators of the unusual holiday demanded that future viewers and readers stop retelling the plots of films, theater productions and books.
