Perm, Russia - Partially Restored Jewish Cemetery Targeted by Vandals

Perm, Russia - Eight gravestones in the Jewish section of a cemetery in Perm, Russia were vandalized.

The Egoshikhinsky cemetery has been vandalized on several previous occasions and after years of neglect was in an appalling state.
Earlier this year, the local Jewish community organized a major effort to restore the tombstones and succeeded in restoring and repairing around 90% of the cemetery.
However, the city government has not provided any security for the cemetery to protect it from vandals, so the Jewish community will now hire guards until the local government steps forward to fill the security gap.
