In light of Russia's attack on Ukraine, sales of Russian art scheduled for June in London have been called off by Bonhams, Sotheby's and Christie's, reported The Art Newspaper. 

“Sotheby’s will not be holding Russian art sales in June,” a spokesperson for the auction house says in a statement. “Our hearts and thoughts go out to all those affected by the Ukraine crisis and we are actively supporting those impacted by the tragic events unfolding in the region through corporate and employee fundraising.”

Phillips auction house has been under scutiny for its Russian ownership and earmarked fees from its March 3 sale of 20th century and contemporary art to the Ukrainian Red Cross Society, which amounted to a £5.8 million ($7.7 million) donation.
