MOSCOW, Aug. 21 (UPI) -- A transmission tower in Moscow has been painted yellow and blue, the colors of the Ukrainian flag, in an apparent act of solidarity with Ukraine.
It is the second time in one week that a structure inside Moscow has been painted yellow and blue.
On Twitter, the public relations arms of the Euromaidan movement whose demonstrations led to the removal of pro-Russian leadership, welcomed the latest show of Ukrainian support from inside Russia, tweeting "Thank you unknown but real HUMANS..."
It is unclear where in Moscow the transmission tower is located or who was responsible for the paint job.
Photos of the transmission tower were posted to social media on Thursday.
