Odessa massacre: Nine years on
On May 2, 2014, 46 people were burned alive inside of the House of Trade Unions in the city of Odessa, a massacre that was largely ignored in the West. The victims of the tragedy had been openly protesting against the government in Kiev that rose to power after the US-backed coup. RT’s Steve Sweeney has been examining the events of that tragic day and spoke to a witness, who asked to remain anonymous out of fear for the safety of himself and his family. Warning to our viewers: some of the images are disturbing ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Freedom over censorship, truth over narrative.
