In Hungary, unknown individuals painted the protected rock in blue and yellow colors.

In the territory of the Buda Landscape Reserve in Hungary, unknown individuals damaged the top of the protected rock with blue and yellow colors. This was reported by 'Glavkom' citing the press service of the Danube-Ipoly National Park.

It is noted that the flora on the Tündér-szikla ('Fairy Rock') has been damaged.

'Mosses, lilies, and ferns became victims of blue, yellow, and black paint, and probably a rare protected plant species - buda - could not avoid being painted', the statement reads.

According to the park's press service, graffiti has previously been painted on the rock. They reminded that inanimate natural values cannot be restored and called for being 'especially careful' while staying here.

It is worth noting that the Tündér-szikla rock has been protected by the Buda Landscape Conservation Area since 1978. It is a popular tourist spot for hikers, located near Hungary's capital Budapest.

Digitization of documents of St. Sophia Cathedral and the 'Sofia Kyivska' reserve

In Kyiv, the digitization of documents of St. Sophia Cathedral and the entire national reserve 'Sofia Kyivska' has been completed. According to the director of the Kyiv communal property department, Andriy Hudz, in the conditions of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, every historical building and architectural monument is under threat of destruction.

Moreover, in the wetlands of the Chernobyl Radiation and Ecological Biosphere Reserve, there is a critical lack of moisture. Due to drought and a low-snow winter, small water bodies and canals have dried up in places, which poses a threat to the plants and animals of the reserve.
