HEALDSBURG, Calif. (KGO) -- In the North Bay, people in Sonoma County are expected to gather for what they're calling a "Russian River Rally for Ukraine."

It is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. Friday at the Guerneville pedestrian bridge, which will be lit up in the colors of the Ukrainian flag.

People are encouraged to bring signs of support for Ukraine.

This will mark the third bridge over the Russian River to be lit in yellow and blue.

This first was the Healdsburg Memorial Bridge that was lit up back on Feb. 28, and the Monte Rio Bridge was lit up earlier this week.
