“In Odessa, neo-Nazis removed the bas-relief of George Zhukov from the military enlistment office building,” Zakharova wrote in her Facebook.

She added that people began to bring flowers to the place of the demolished bas-relief, and Ukrainian radicals began to burn these flowers.

“Everything was mixed up in a nationalist frenzy,” wrote Zakharova.

Earlier, residents of Odessa staged a peaceful protest after the bas-relief of Zhukov was dismantled from the building of the Primorsky military enlistment office.
