Momument to those killed by the nazis vandalised with swastikas and anti-semitic slogans
A MONUMENT commemorating the people killed by nazis in the Ukrainian city of Poltava has been vandalised.
The sculpture, known as The Grieving Mother, marks the spot where nazis killed thousands of Jewish and Soviet prisoners of war during the second world war.
It had been daubed with swastikas and slogans including “Heil Hitler” and “Death to the Jews.” The face had its eyes sprayed with black paint and a “Hitler moustache” added.
