The names of more than 3,900 people who gave their lives to save the Jews of France are engraved on the wall of the memorial.
The mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, said that the act of vandalism was committed on the night of Monday to Tuesday, adding that a complaint had been filed with the prosecutor’s office.
“There is no justification for such blasphemy; it is an insult to the memory of the victims of the Holocaust and the righteous who saved the Jews, risking their lives,” Hidalgo emphasized.
French President Emmanuel Macron condemned the act of vandalism.
“The desecration of the Wall of the Righteous Among the Nations… is an outrage against the memory of these heroes and victims of the tragedy, which, as before, remains steadfast in the face of the blasphemous display of anti-Semitism. ,” Macron said.
It was previously reported that by recruiting minor Ukrainian youth, Russian special services tried to incite anti-Semitic sentiments in the Zhytomyr region, as well as in the Dnieper, Lvov and Vinnitsa .
