Ukrainians paint traditional Easter eggs to have UNSECO recognise their craft

A group of Ukrainians have painted hundreds of traditional Easter eggs in a bid to have UNESCO recognise their craft in its list of Intangible Cultural Heritage elements. The group painted more than 800 eggs during a seven-hour period. A painter at the event labelled the art form as an important cultural symbol as Ukraine continues to fight the Russian invasion. Ukraine also set the record for the largest mass painting of Easter eggs. The Easter eggs will be handed to the defenders on the frontline of the Russia-Ukraine war.
