Odessa Trade Unions House Massacre - RT Documentary

Nine years have passed since the terrible tragedy in Odessa. On May 2, 2014, Ukrainian radicals set fire to the Trade Unions House, drowning pro-Russian protests in blood. According to official data, 48 people were killed and more than 240 injured. Those who tried to escape from the inferno by leaping out of the windows were murdered by the radicals. ’The people going downstairs were beaten with sticks, chains, and steel bars,’ recalls Igor Polovnev, an Odessa resident. To learn more about the horrifying events that fateful day from Odessa residents, watch an excerpt of the film ’Donbass. Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow’ (2022). #HumanStories@rt__documentary
