From the Lord Mayor's Office
Statement for our Macedonian Community
Wednesday 19 March 2025
My thoughts are with our local Macedonian community, our sister city of Ohrid and the people of North Macedonia in the wake of the nightclub fire tragedy that occurred in Kocani, North Macedonia, on March 16 and claimed the lives of 59 people and left more than 150 people critically injured.
On behalf of the residents of Wollongong I express my sadness and sympathy for those impacted by this distressing event.
Be assured that Wollongong stands in solidarity with you all at this sad time.
