Rumours of Banksy's arrival in Ukraine started swirling on Friday after a painting of a child throwing a man to the floor in a judo outfit was spotted on a building in the same town. Photojournalist Ed Ram, who is in Ukraine working for photo agency Getty, snapped the image before Banksy confirmed he was in the country. Ed said: "I wonder if it might be a Banksy or an imitation? "Russian President Vladimir Putin, who was a black belt in judo, was removed from his position as honorary president of the International Judo Federation in May." The image was shared by Martyn Reed, an artist, who said: "It's beginning to look like Banksy is in Ukraine. "There was some debate when the first stencil appeared... expect to see more popping up in the coming days." A Banksy-style artwork also appeared in the nearby city of Irpin. The image showed a woman in a leotard and a neck brace waving a ribbon. Banksy's post of his street art in Borodyanka has been liked by more than 800,000 fans, while nearly 10,000 have left comments. Thousands praised Banksy for the "amazing" artwork and Ukrainians thanked the British artist for){kind=link}
