In an incident that is similar to a multitude of Jewish hate crimes pervading France during the past year, a Jewish cemetery near Paris was desecrated by a person who vandalized eight headstones, the Times of Israel website reports today (April 18, 2018).
The incident earlier this week resulted in damage to the headstones at the cemetery in Seine Saint Denis, north of the French capital, according to a statement issued today by Sammy Ghozlan, president of the National Bureau for Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism.
A young woman of African descent, who often used to wander around the cemetery grounds, is suspected of being connected to the vandalism, Ghozlan wrote.
Ghozlan added: "The cowardly hatred that is proliferating today is driving those who hate Jews to attack not only the living, but also the dead."
