On October 23, 2023, in the "Remembrance" park located in Lustdorf Road in Odessa, a ceremony commemorating the 82nd anniversary of the tragedy was held. The event took place at the site where, on the night of October 23, 1941, 25,000 Odessans, mostly of Jewish descent, were burned alive in gun powder warehouses.
The mourning ceremony, including the laying of flowers and honoring the memory of the victims, took place near the monument to the victims of Nazism, as reported by the City Hall.
Roman Shvartsman, the head of the Association of the former Jewish prisoners of ghettos and concentration camps, noted that history is repeating itself today. However, Ukrainians believe that victory is imminent, and an end must be put to Nazism and terror.
