Ukraine?s coat of arms made of didukhs installed in Lviv

Pelahiia Zhyvko, 96, who helps with Ukraine's biggest trident, also known as the tryzub, made of 340 didukhs (Ukrainian Christmas decoration made from a sheaf of wheat), attends the ceremony to install the creation at the Taras Shevchenko monument in Lviv, Ukraine, on December 23, 2024.
