Sand sculpture in Tõrva honours Volodymyr Zelensky

In the small Estonian resort town of Tõrva in Valga County, a sand sculpture has been made in the image Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. The sculpture was built by Ukrainian war refugees who live in the area and was sponsored by local entrepreneurs. It took 72 metric tons of sand to erect the five metre tall sculpture that depicts Zelenskyy as the Statue of Liberty. The town is planning to surround the statue with other sculptures and call the area 'Freedom Park'. The park will stay there until autumn.
