As the Russia-Ukraine war rages on, the sculpture of Jesus Christ at the Armenian Cathedral in Lviv has been moved into hiding, Eastern European media organisation NEXTA reported on Tuesday. The last time the statue was moved out of the church was during World War II (1939-1945). According to Le Berre, the statue will “be stored in a bunker for protection,” and the last time the statue was removed was World War II.
