Two memorial sites commemorating fallen IDF soldiers were vandalized on Thursday. The monuments, in the Jordan Valley, were defaced with political slogans.

A Palestinian flag was painted on a memorial near Mehola, south of Beit She’an, while a series of political slogans calling for the end of the occupation were sprayed over the names of soldiers at a memorial at Petzael, near the Allenby Bridge border crossing.
