  1. So sorry to the loved ones for these terrible losses.
    Odesa is a fine city with a fairytale old town.
    The putler murder gang must suffer impalement.

  2. Update 12:35. According to the Ministry of Culture and Strategic Communications of Ukraine , the Odessa Film Studio, one of the oldest cinema centers in Europe, was also hit last night. In particular, production buildings, warehouses with costumes and props, historical scenery, and technical vehicles were damaged. The scenery for the national film “Dovzhenko”, dedicated to the outstanding Ukrainian director, was completely destroyed. The fire at the film studio was extinguished thanks to the prompt actions of security, so most of the unique artifacts were saved. There were no casualties among the studio employees, but the home of one of them was damaged due to the hit of the “shaheed”.

    It also became known that an animal died in the zoo due to the explosion. At the same time, despite the destruction, the institution is operating.
