Since this morning, Yerevan City Hall employees have been busy cleaning the traces of barbarism on the monument dedicated to the memory of the Holocaust victims. As reported earlier, a red swastika and the words “Death to Jews” (in Armenian) were spray-painted on the memorial.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An Epress.am correspondent on the ground earlier today spoke with a city employee on the scene, who did not wish to be named. He said they found out about the incident at night, through ordinary citizens.<\/p>\n
