Turkish vandals reached Australia
The monument commemorating victims of Assyrian Genocide was vandalized in Australia. It was painted with a Turkish crescent and star, Asbarez reported.
The vandals also sprayed curses on a pedestal. The plaque at the front of the monument was removed as well. The memorial is dedicated to 750,000 Assyrians killed by Turks in World War I.
In a second attack, a war memorial in Fairfield Park, dedicated to Australian and Assyrian soldiers who fought together in WWI and WWII, was also vandalized, the Fairfield City Champion newspaper reported.
