This was stated by Eveline Kravchenko, the employee of the Institute of Archeology of the National Academy of Sciences during her speech at the expert forum.

She stressed that the Chersonesus in Sevastopol is a UNESCO heritage site of world importance.

Since the occupation of Crimea in 2014, Russia has been destroying historical sites. In addition, the invaders moved many archeological artefacts to Russia.

The ancient city of Chersonesus, founded in the 6th century BC, was one of the local centers of Hellenic civilization. In 2013, Chersonesus was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
