The first monument to the victims of the Holodomor of 1932-1933 in Ukraine was erected in Jerusalem — what is known?

In April 2025, in Jerusalem, at the Wohl Rose Garden (Wohl Rose Garden), located between the Knesset and the Supreme Court, the first memorial in Israel to the victims of the Ukrainian Holodomor of 1932-1933 was installed. This monument was the result of cooperation between the city of Jerusalem, The Temerty Foundation, The Embassy of Ukraine in Israel, HREC (Holodomor Research and Education Center), The Ukrainian World Congress (UWC), and The Jerusalem Development Authority.
The Role of the Monument and Its Symbolism

The monument is designed as broken sacrificial millstones with a raised hand, symbolizing the suffering and resistance of the victims of the Holodomor. This symbolism also reflects the fact that many Ukrainians who survived this genocide were subjected to hunger and brutal repression, and their memory remains a vital part of Ukrainian history today.
The Author of the Monument: Lyudmyla Temertiy

The monument was created by Canadian artist of Ukrainian descent Lyudmyla Temertiy, who is the author of the first Holodomor monument installed in 1983 in Edmonton (Canada).
