In Rivne, unknown people destroyed most of the hanukkiah lamps, as well as a switchboard. The incident occurred in the city center, on Independence Square.

This is reported by Jewish News.

The act of vandalism was discovered on the morning of December 4. According to eyewitnesses, a note was left on hanukkiah with the approximate meaning "Jews abuse our tolerance."

The Rivne Jewish community called a patrol police squad to the scene to draw up a statement.

This is the fifth consecutive affected hanukkiah in Ukraine during this Hanukkah festivity.
