Exhibition on Holodomor in Ukraine opened in South Africa

According to Ukrinform, the Embassy of Ukraine in South Africa reported this on Facebook.

In her speech, Ambassador of Ukraine to South Africa Liubov Abravitova emphasized the importance of continuing to inform the world about crimes against humanity in Ukraine.

“Unfortunately, today we are witnessing the second wave of genocide against the Ukrainian people: the forced deportation of children from Ukrainian territories, targeted attacks on hospitals, schools, kindergartens, residential buildings...” she said.
