Russians Systematically Loot Art, Ancient Relics From Ukraine’s Cultural Sites

KHERSON, Ukraine—The glass at the Kherson Regional Museum that once protected ancient pottery from the area now lies broken on the floor. The fifth-century jewelry is gone. Shelves that used to house artifacts from the Cossacks, who lived in the area before it was conquered by the Russian Empire, are now empty.

Russians packed it all onto trucks before fleeing the city last month.
