The explosion occurred in a residential building at 42 Koblevskaya Street on the third floor, where the Sea Hostel Odessa is located.

The shock wave shattered glass in the house and in the yard, First City reported, citing eyewitnesses. “The police, fire brigade, ambulance, emergency vehicle and explosives laboratory arrived,” local residents said. According to unconfirmed reports, an explosive device was placed under the door of the hostel on the third floor. There was a hole in the stairwell the size of two floors.

Later, Odessa director Mikhail Khersonsky, known for his pro-Ukrainian views, whose apartment is located next door, said that they wanted to blow up the refugees from Donbass whom he hosted.

“The bomb was probably lying on the platform in front of the door, waiting in the wings, hidden in a mountain of garbage bags, which the hostel, on the contrary, has been regularly dumping in a heap for a good ten years now. We won't seriously think that someone decided to blow up the hostel, right? Firstly, there are many affordable hostels, and this one, quiet and inconspicuous, is located on the third floor. Secondly, I have never seen any refugees from Donetsk/Lugansk there. This hostel stood for 10 years and was of no interest to anyone. But I know exactly where the refugees were. They were in the very apartment in the photo, about which for some reason the media don’t say a word: it was as if something had exploded in a field,” he states on his Facebook page, noting that they could have tried to intimidate him with the explosion family.
