(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners in Ukraine participated in a Physical Exercise and Fitness Fair in Shevchenko Park in Dnipro on August 5, 2023. More than 100 participating groups introduced Asian physical exercises and ways to improve health. Practitioners demonstrated the five sets of Falun Gong exercises, taught people how to make origami lotus flowers, and demonstrated a dragon dance. Many people were informed about this beneficial cultivation practice, which originated in ancient China.

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
