Polish police are investigating the desecration of a Jewish cemetery in
northeastern Poland.
Monika Krawczyk, the CEO of the Foundation for the
Preservation of Jewish Heritage in Poland, said vandals spray-painted swastikas
and anti-Semitic images and slogans on graves, a Holocaust memorial and the
entrance to the Jewish cemetery in Wysokie Mazowieckie near Bialystok on Sunday
night.
One of the slogans read “Here is Poland – not Israel,” which,
according to Krawczyk, is a slogan used by Polish neo-Nazi groups. No Jews live
in Wysokie.
