A number of murals believed to be the work of Banksy have been found near Kyiv, Ukraine.

One of them, a small child throwing an adult in a judo uniform, could be an irony to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is known as a judo black belt.
A drawing of a girl doing rhythmic gymnastics was also posted on Banksy’s own social media.
Banksy, known as an unidentified street artist, has multiple testimonies that he witnessed him painting this time.
“There were four or five people wearing work clothes, and they moved very quickly.
Is Banksy a group rather than an individual? Another eyewitness, however, thought Banksy was the oldest of the men.
“He had a beard and I think he was under 45 or 50. He seemed the oldest in the group. The other people he helped were 30 to 35 years old.” (Witness)
Borodyanka, where the painting was found, was one of the towns that was heavily attacked by the Russian army.
“This is a historic moment for Ukraine. Artists like Banksy visiting Ukraine will show the world how bad the situation is in Russia,” said a local resident.
