Ukraine’s shadow war against Russian collaborators came into sharp relief on Sunday, when Zelensky dismissed two senior law enforcement officials.

Zelensky specifically cited Ukraine’s security service, an unwieldy force of 27,000 personnel, the largest in Europe. Many intelligence chiefs graduated from K.G.B. schools, and Western allies say that the service has too many areas of operation, leaving it open to corruption and prone to straying from its spy-hunting role.

In its first exhibit, Museo dell’Arte Salvata — the Museum of Rescued Art — pays tribute to Italy’s art theft police squad, which it says has returned thousands of pieces to Italy. It also highlights the ways pieces can lose their way. Some works were stolen; others were damaged in earthquakes or other natural disasters. Many pieces need restoration: They’ve been pulled from ancient shipwrecks or ravaged by time. The exhibition runs through mid-October. Then, the pieces will move on, often away from Rome. Italy will try to return many works to institutions near their likely places of origin, a longstanding effort from its culture ministry. “I think of this as a museum of wounded art, because the works exhibited here have been deprived of their contexts of discovery and belonging,” a museum official said. He described the exhibit as a kind of “parenthesis in the life of the object” and said that “a phase of illegality is over, and now a new life begins.” PLAY, WATCH, EAT, READ What to Cook Bobbi Lin for The New York Times This [pasta salad](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkuL_RP4QaAWh0dHBzOi8vY29va2luZy5ueXRpbWVzLmNvbS9yZWNpcGVzLzEwMjMzMjgtcGFzdGEtc2FsYWQ_YWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrJmNhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIyMDcxOSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD02Njk5NiZtb2R1bGU9UmVjaXBlK29mK1RoZStEYXkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1ldXJvcGUtZWRpdGlvbiZwZ1R5cGU9aG9tZXBhZ2UmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTk4ODkwJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpi1dE61mLGtdtHUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) has chunky mozzarella and juicy, ripe tomatoes.
