Wenceslas Square, 50th anniversary of Palach's death
People attend a commemorative meeting organised by the Million Moments for Democracy initiative and Mene Tekel international project against totalitarianism at Wenceslas Square in Prague, Czech Republic, on January 16, 2019. Palach, a student of the Charles University's Faculty of Arts, set himself on fire in Prague on January 16, 1969 in protest against people's growing lethargy following the August 21, 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia. He died of fatal burns three days later, aged 20. (CTK Photo/Marketa Vojtikova)
