Hola Prystan

Hola Prystan (Ukrainian: Гола Пристань, pronounced [ˈɦɔɫɐ ˈprɪstɐnʲ]) is a city located in Skadovsk Raion, Kherson Oblast, southern Ukraine.

As part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, municipality was abolished in July 2020, reducing the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five.

The pogrom was stopped not by the authorities but by the peasants of Hola Prystan, who “with clubs in their hands met the hooligans of other villages eager for a tidbit, and when those started smashing the stores, they fought them”.

[6] Under the Soviets, the Jewish population of Hola Prystan fell, mainly due to migration to larger cities in search of jobs and education opportunities.

[10] In 2023, Russian forces opened fire with multiple launch rocket systems in Hola Prystan and Kherson, damaging residential houses and injuring civilians.
