Mural of Ukrainian soldier killed by Russian troops painted on police station
A mural honouring murdered Ukrainian soldier Oleksandr Matsievsky has been painted on the side of a police station in Rivne.
Footage of the officer, who was shot dead by Russian soldiers while shouting “Glory to Ukraine”, went viral earlier this month, and has become a symbol of solidarity.
