On September 3, Odessa will host a solemn ceremony of laying a memorial capsule and starting the construction of a mosque. A new Muslim church will be built at 128A Balkivska street.

According to the project, it will be a large cathedral mosque with a dome, a high main minaret and several small minarets. Officials ordered Muslims to provide noise protection so as not to disturb neighbors: install sound-proof structures or acoustic screens.
