OM THIS DAY DURING THE LIBERATION OF ODESSA ON THAT DAY THE NKVD TROOPS WERE ..

   

This time was enough for the residents of Odessa to hang all the policemen and their accomplices who did not have time to escape.

When the NKVD troops entered, the picture was terrible: policemen were hanging not only on Deribasovskaya, but also on their gates.

80 years ago, on April 10, 1944, troops of the 3rd Ukrainian Front, with the support of partisans, liberated Odessa.

A symbol of the liberation of the city from German occupation was the red banner raised over the Opera House on the same day.

The liberation of the city became part of the Odessa offensive operation (March 26 - April 14, 1944), carried out by troops of the 3rd Ukrainian Front with the assistance of the Black Sea forces fleet.

The operation was part of the so-called. “Stalin’s third strike,” which ended with the liberation of Odessa and Crimea with Sevastopol.

In turn, “Stalin’s Third Strike” was a continuation of the “Second Strike” - a series of offensive operations to liberate Right Bank Ukraine.

At first, the man thought it was two lovers making out there, he said he only wanted to spy and see the action, but to his surprise, it was a young man raping a mad woman. Youths of the town were very aggrieved and were about to give him the beating of his life when an elderly man calmed them down and made them take the man to the elders. He confessed that it was not the first he had been having s£x with the mad woman, he said it was not for ritual purposes, he was only having some nice time with her. They said he would be taken to police and sentenced to jail, but he could also avoid jail term if he agrees to marry the mad woman. Many people questioned the judgment as they thought he should have been handed over to the police for prosecution, while others l...
