JEWISH SCHOOL VANDALIZED IN UKRAINE

Vandals deface Ukrainian Jewish school (JTA)
Vandals scrawled anti-Semitic messages on a Jewish school in Ukraine. Students at the ORT Aleph Jewish Gymnasium in Zaporojie returned to school last week to find “Jews, get out” and “Death to Jews” spray-painted on the building. The incident was reported to the police. Approximately 20,000 Jews live among Zaporojie’s 800,000 residents. The ORT school has some 300 students.
