A fire that occurred at the children's sports and leisure camp "Victoria" in Odessa, which resulted in casualties among children, is a terrible tragedy, and all the guilty should be punished severely. This was stated by Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman.

“This is a heinous tragedy, and I spoke with Chairman of the Odessa Regional State Administration. They will summon a commission’s meeting (on investigating the circumstances of the accident). “According to preliminary information, in May this complex was inspected, in particular fire safety systems”, said Volodymyr Groysman. “The investigation will find out what happened, but it's a shocking tragedy when children are killed. And if this is due to the negligence of the people who were responsible for safety, they must be punished severely. My deepest condolences to the relatives of the victims.”
