In Warsaw, monuments with inscriptions in honor of the UPA* were desecrated.
The monument to the soldiers of the Polish army and the monument to the heroes of the Warsaw Ghetto (pictured) were damaged.
Inscriptions glorifying UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army)* militants were painted in red on both objects, said local police spokesman Bartolomei Snydala. He assumed it was one person acting.
The vandalism took place against the background of worsening Polish-Ukrainian relations due to the Volyn massacre.
