During the rocket shelling, the Transfiguration Cathedral in Odesa was destroyed, along with several other buildings in the city centre.

The Ministry of Culture stated that they expect active efforts to preserve and restore Ukrainian cultural heritage and call for excluding Russia from the organisation.

As reported, Italy previously declared its readiness to participate in the restoration of the Transfiguration Cathedral in Odesa.
