Polish gov't apologizes for anti-Semitic skirmishes during March of the Living
Israeli deputy Avraham Herszon said Israeli youth taking part in the "March
of the Living" were attacked by Polish extremists. Herszon emphasized that
Israeli security services stopped four people. One of them appeared to be a
Polish soldier, who was handed over to the police. Israelis were shocked by
the aggressive attitude of young Poles, who were shouting such phrases as,
"Jews go back home!" Organizers of the march emphasize however that the
Polish police's intervention was fast and effective. The police reported
that they have not receive any accusations of a crime being committed from
the Israelis so far. The Polish government expressed its indignation over
the incident. (Zycie page 4) A.D.
