Ukraine's military has intensified its attacks near Russian-annexed Crimea, following up strikes on Russia's land corridor to the peninsula by targeting maritime supply routes as well, BBC reported.

A peanut butter of 800 pounds, enough for at least 15,000 sandwiches have been spread on the floor of the Netherlands museum in tribute to Dutch artist Wim T. Schippers, who died last month, AP reported.

Schippers, who died at the age of 83, was a conceptual artist who created the Pindakaasvloer (peanut butter floor), in 1969 first. The work will reopen to the public Friday at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam for a two-month show, AP said.

According to AP, Schippers also voiced Ernie and Kermit the Frog in the Dutch version of “Sesame Street,” and created absurdist and silly works that challenged conventional ideas about the meaning of art.

“Isn’t it fantastic that we are all standing here looking at peanut butter?” Schippers told journalists gathered at the Central Museum in Utrecht in 1997 where Pindakaasvloer was on display for the second time.

Schippers created the work as part of a Floor Covering Series, which also included floors covered with glass shards and salt.

Forty buckets of peanut butter spread took several days and two employees of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen across a 25-square-meter (270-square-foot) hexagon last week. The men used drywall trowels to smear the peanut butter to a thickness of 2 centimeters (0.8 inch), AP reported.
