this month in Jewish history - mob violence against Jewish people in Odessa, Ukraine

"The 1905 pogrom of Odessa was the worst anti-Jewish pogrom in Odessa's history. Between 18 and 22 October 1905, ethnic Russians, Ukrainians, and Greeks claimed over 400 Jewish victims and damaged or destroyed over 1600 Jewish properties. Historians such as Weinberg and Lambroza believe the police and hospital figures were likely an underestimate, with a range of estimates from likely over 800, to over 1000 killed, and approximately over 2000 or even up to 5000 wounded. Pogroms also swept through the shtetls in 1905–1907." -Wikipedia
