Russian strike on Odesa leaves Armenian Consulate building damaged

Ukraine – Aug 14 2023
Due to the massive missile and drone attack of the Russian Federation on Odesa overnight Monday, the building of the Armenian Consulate sustained damage.

This was reported by an Ukrinform correspondent.

The facade was damaged and windows were shattered by the strike.

"The consulate building’s exterior was damaged. There is no damage inside. The consulate continues its operations," said Consul General in Odesa Gagik Gayrapetyan.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, the Russians attacked Odesa in three waves overnight Monday, launching 15 one-way attack drones and eight Kalibr-type sea-based missiles. Seven educational facilities and 250 houses sustained damage. One of the city's largest supermarkets was completely destroyed. Three security guards were injured.


Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
