Anti-Semitic slogans painted on 3 Jewish buildings in Odessa, Ukraine
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleUnidentified individuals painted anti-Semitic graffiti on three Jewish institutions in the city of Odessa in southern Ukraine.
The graffiti, includes the words “toasting the Holocaust” on the gate of Odessa’s Holocaust museum, were discovered Monday. The city’s Brodsky Synagogue has the words: “Jews out, Ukraine for Ukrainians” written on its exterior fence.
An offensive symbol appears on a gate adjacent to the Beit Grand Jewish Community Center. It and the other two graffiti featured the symbol of the Azov Battalion, a National Guard of Ukraine regiment that was set up after Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine.
Last month, an anti-Semitic slur was painted on the wall of a Jewish charity in western Ukraine.
