The grave of a Soviet soldier fallen in the battle of Belgrade in October 1944, on the outskirts of the city. Unlike most of the Red Army graves, which were marked with obelisks with a five-pointed star, the tomb of this soldier – who was buried by the Serbs – was marked with a Christian cross, and inscribed (in Serbian): "Unknown fighter – a Russian – of Belgrade."

Grob sovjetskog vojnika palog u borbama za Beograd oktobra 1944. godine, na periferiji grada. Za razliku od većine crvenoarmejskih grobova, koji su obeležavani obeliscima sa petokrakom zvezdom, grobno mesto ovog vojnika – kog su sahranili Srbi – obeleženo je hrišćanskim krstom, sa natpisom: "Neznani borac – Rus – Beograda."
