Holocaust memorial vandalized in Ukraine

A Jewish group says a Holocaust memorial has been vandalized in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv.

Oleksandr Nazar of the city's Sholem Aleichem Jewish Culture Center said Friday that unknown assailants on Wednesday smeared red and blue paint over the memorial in central Lviv. He said the vandals also wrote a statement on the memorial which "humiliates both Jews and Ukrainians." (AP)
