September 12: What holiday is today, traditions and prohibitions.

Today, September 12, Ukraine celebrates the Day of Radio-Electronic Warfare Specialist of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, World Dolphin Day, and International Crochet Day. These are holidays that evoke interest and respect among various groups of the population.

This holiday was established by an order of the Minister of Defense of Ukraine in 2006 but was later canceled and only restored in 2021 by an order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Valery Zaluzhny.

The Radio-Electronic Warfare Troops play an important role in protecting the strategic command and control systems of the troops and weapons from enemy interference.

World Dolphin Day is a global initiative aimed at raising awareness about dolphin conservation and the issues they face. This day reminds us of the significance of these marine mammals and the urgent need to protect them from the threats they face from humans.

International Crochet Day is a holiday that popularizes crochet and draws attention to this type of needlework. It was initiated by a blogger from the USA and has found support among needlewomen worldwide.

Today, the memory of Saint Hieromartyr Autonomus, who was a bishop in Italy during the reign of Emperor Diocletian, is also commemorated. He preached Christianity and was a victim of persecution. His body was buried according to Christian custom, and a church was later founded at the site of his burial.

This day is also associated with various folk signs and traditions passed down from generation to generation.

• It is necessary to refrain from negative words and wishing harm.
• At the same Time, one should not work hard or clean at home.
• It is good to be ready to help others and provide charity.

We also recall memorable dates that fall on this day in history: the opening of the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, the Battle of Vienna, and other events. Finally, today, Daniel, Ivan, Nikolai, Alexey, Semyon, and others celebrate their name days.
