'War crime:' Industrial-scale destruction of Ukraine culture
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) The exquisite golden tiara, inlaid with precious stones by master craftsmen some 1,500 years ago, was one of the worlds most valuable artifacts from the blood-letting rule of Attila the Hun, who rampaged with horseback warriors deep into Europe in the 5th century.
