Flag mural appears near Tyne Bridge in Newcastle in solidarity with those affected by war in Ukraine

Andriy Demchak moved to Newcastle from Ukraine 14 years ago to work as an artist and marketing director. But after war broke out in his native country he wanted to do something simple and effective to help spread awareness of the troubles faced at home in Ukraine.

And he quickly got to work creating a mural that would be seen by hundreds of people commuting into Newcastle city centre every day.
