On Friday night, the world-renowned graffiti artist posted three images of the artwork on Instagram – a gymnast performing a handstand amid the rubble of a demolished building in the town of Borodyanka northwest of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv. The caption read “Borodianka, Ukraine.” Along with towns like Bucha and Irpin, Borodyanka was hit hard by Russian bombing and has become a symbol of the devastation wrought by Moscow’s offensive since February. The city was briefly occupied by Russian forces before they withdrew in April. “It’s a symbol that we are unbreakable,” 32-year-old Oleksiy Savochka told AFP on Saturday, referring to the graffiti. “And our country is unbreakable.” A series of murals – in the style of Banksy – have appeared in and around Kyiv, prompting Ukrainians to speculate that the anonymous street artist may be working in the war-torn country. Another graffiti in Borodyanka – its origin was not confirmed by the artist – shows a small boy throwing a man wearing a judo outfit to the ground.

On the side of a dilapidated building in Irpin, a third mural – also unconfirmed by Banksy – shows a gymnast performing a ribbon routine despite apparently being injured and wearing a neck collar.
