99 paintings stolen by Russians from Kherson are in occupied Crimea
Kyiv • UNN
The Kherson Art Museum reports that 100 paintings stolen by the Russian occupiers have been identified, 99 of which are in the occupied Crimea.
One hundred paintings stolen by Russians from the Kherson Art Museum are definitely in the clutches of the occupiers. 99 of them are in the occupied Crimea. This is stated in the report of the Kherson Art Museum named after Oleksiy Shovkunenko, reports UNN.
The Kherson Museum notes that the 100 identified works are a drop in the bucket, less than 1% of the stolen art, because under the guise of the so-called "evacuation" the occupiers took more than 10,000 works of art.
"But every painting, every graphic work, every piece of artwork - everything we identify is indisputable proof that the stolen works (at least these) are in the hands of Russian art looters. And to prevent the criminals from saying that "they weren't there," as is their habit, we are recording everything we see in the photos and videos from Crimea and Genichesk.
By the way, out of this hundred identified works, 99 are in the occupied Crimea, in the Central Museum of Tavrida. The location of the one that "appeared" in Genichesk is unknown (perhaps somewhere in the same Genichesk, although this is only an assumption), but the kidnappers confirm that they have Konstantin Korovin's "Phaeton in Sevastopol" somewhere," the statement said.

The Kherson Museum assures that they continue to add to the list of works whose illegal possession by the occupiers is beyond doubt.
