By the way, the comrade of the deceased miraculously survived, because he was not far away.
- Even this tragic story did not force the inhabitants of Odessa to leave the beaches. Despite a strict ban and huge risks, people continue to swim in the sea and sunbathe on the beach. Thus, they create additional work for the patrolmen, since law enforcement officers are forced to disperse the vacationers.
