Starting from the height of the Concert Hall, they reached the port of the city, standing out with their presence, among other things for the fact that they were not wearing any T-shirts but were half-naked, while the run was done at a pace and with the team lined up.

There were many citizens who looked puzzled at the unusual sight, which nevertheless comes as a result of the large presence of military personnel in the city, ahead of the military parade on October 28, according to grtimes.
