10 years ago, in early May 2014, after several months of widespread political unrest in #Odesa, #Ukraine, street clashes between pro-#Russia and pro-Ukraine factions resulted in a deadly fire in the city’s Trade Unions building. It’s still unclear who exactly is to blame for the deaths. Nonetheless, the Russian state-run media machine started churning out propaganda about the fire the very next day, characterizing the events as a merciless attack by “Ukrainian neo-Nazis”

An attack on #Odesa last night killed five and injured over 30. Russian troops set on fire the Palace of Students at the National University Odesa Law Academy, nicknamed "Harry Potter's Castle" due to its unique shape.
They used an Iskander missile with cluster munitions, scattering debris over a 1.5km radius. Prosecutors suspect a deliberate choice to maximize casualties.

"There's a lot of noise in the marketplace
They're talking,
Somebody's lost a suitcase
And forgot the lemons.
Oh lemons, you're my lemons,
Where you grow on Sonia's balcony."
