A menorah in the Ukrainian capital city of Kiev was vandalized last night, just days after an earlier anti-Semitic incident of vandalism targeting the Jewish symbol during the Hanukkah holiday, the Israel National News website reports today (December 18, 2017).
The menorah, located in the Podil neighborhood of Kiev, once home to a large Jewish population -- including Israel's first female Prime Minister, Golda Meir -- was found smeared with animal blood at about 7:00 p.m. local time last night.
Two days earlier, vandals spray painted a swastika on the same menorah.
Kiev police received a complaint regarding the vandalism, and have opened an investigation into what they called an "act of hooliganism."
