Jerusalem police on Sunday opened an investigation into Nazi graffiti sprayed on an abandoned building in the city’s southeast, police said.
Swastikas, the SS symbol, and an image recalling the Nazi Party’s symbol of an imperial eagle sitting atop a swastika, were spray-painted on the walls of the building, close to Adam Street in the Armon Hanatziv neighborhood.
In June, an Israeli man was arrested after he painted swastikas in a synagogue and on walls inside a nearby residential building in the central Jerusalem neighborhood of Nahlaot.
Also in June, police arrested two Jewish teenagers on suspicion of daubing swastikas on two synagogues in the central town of Petah Tikva.
