Students of the Lviv Music Academy were first among the Lviv universities to support the nationwide patriotic flash mob challenge and sang the song of Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) «Our father Bandera! Ukraine our mother!» (Bat’ko nash Bandera! Ukraina – maty!)

The students posted the video on YouTube.

Several dozen students of the Academy performed the song and encouraged others to join the flash mob.

It will be recalled that the flash mob was launched by four schoolgirls from Lviv on the eve of the Day of the Defenders and Defendresses of Ukraine, who sang a patriotic song in class. Later, various cities and villages all over Ukraine began to support the idea. This flashmob continues to gain more and more popularity on Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram. Pupils and students sing the song in different places.
