Swastikas found on Holon buildings
Nazi graffiti discovered in several places in the city. Ayalon district police investigating the incident, no arrests made so far
Neo-Nazism in Israel rears its ugly head once more: Just one week after the discovery of a neo-Nazi cell in Petah Tikva and the arrest of its members, residents of several buildings in Holon discovered that swastikas had been spray-painted on their walls.
Around 1pm Sunday, the residents of an apartment building in Holon's Bialik Street discovered swastika graffiti on the side of their building. The word "Hitler" was sprayed alongside it.
A short while after, several other swastikas were discovered spray-painted on a building on Weizmann Square in central Holon. The Ayalon district police launched an investigation into the matter, but no arrests have been made so far.
Swastikas were also discovered in Dimona on Friday, sprayed on the walls of the Beit Ephraim synagogue. Dimona Mayor Meir Cohen offered a NIS 2,000 (about $488) reward for information leading to the perpetrators.
The Eilat Pahad Yitzhak synagogue suffered similar vandalism: earlier in September its walls were spray-painted with Christian crosses and the words "Hitler is the messiah, long live Jesus".
