Details: The Russians have explained that they stole the monuments in order to “preserve unique artworks from shelling by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.”
A bust of Suvorov was installed in Kherson in 1950 to mark the 150th anniversary of his death.
A statue of Admiral Ushakov was installed in 1957 near the building of the Kherson State Maritime Academy on the avenue of the same name.
