Nobel medal sold for Ukrainian kids
By EUobserver
An auction of Russian journalist Dmitry Muratov's Nobel Peace Prize raised $103.5m (€98m) for Unicef efforts to help children displaced by the war in Ukraine. It is a record sum for a Nobel. Muratov was awarded the gold medal in October 2021 for helping found the independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta. He was the publication's editor-in-chief until it was shut down in March by the Kremlin.
