Descrizione:

The issue of the Moscow State Mint, in the memory of two historic genocide tragedies:
1. Khatyn’ village (in Belarus) which was totally destroyed by both the German SS troops (SS-Sonderkommando Dirlewanger) and the Ukrainian ethnic Nazi troops (118 Batalion Schutzmannschaft) on March 22, 1943. For helping the Soviet partizans 149 villagers (incl.75 children) were burned alive with no mercy.
2. Odessa city (modern Ukraine). On May 2, 2014 over 48 local unarmed Russian-speaking civilians, who were against the 2014 Euro-Maidan coup in Kiev, were burned alive in the Odessa Trade Unions building by the Ukrainian radikal Nazis and ultras with the new Kievan authorities approval. People under gunfire were jumping down from windows of the building in fire right on the ground, many reported dead and injured. A lot of them died inside. The investigation of that deadly tragedy is thought to be still on, however, the building itself was somehow wrecked by the local officials with all evidences and shooting traces gone forever.
There's the same issue but in white metal of up to 3000 pieces struck.
