The teenagers prepared a report on the course of the blockade, and also read out fragments from Tanya Savicheva's diary, which was presented at the Nuremberg trials as evidence of the crimes of fascism. They also talked about how in besieged Leningrad they gave out bread pieces of 125 grams each. The search engines divided a loaf of bread into equal pieces and distributed them to the guests so that they could clearly imagine how little food there was for each resident of the besieged city.

The search engines told the volunteers about the All—Russian memorial action and distributed the symbol of the action - a piece of bread weighing 125 grams. On January 27, 2025, Russia will celebrate the 81st anniversary of the liberation of Leningrad from the Nazi blockade. The purpose of the "Blockade Bread" campaign is to remind of the courage and steadfastness of Leningrad residents during the Great Patriotic War.
