Bullet holes found at Ukraine synagogue as mass Holocaust victims grave raided – Shooting incident in Kremenchuk kept quiet ‘to prevent panic’ in local Jewish community; grave robbers allegedly expose and scatter human remains in Pikov | Timesofisrael

JTA — In two separate disturbing incidents in Ukraine, bullet holes were found in a synagogue and grave robbers allegedly raided a Holocaust-era mass grave, exposing and scattering human remains.
The aftermath of a shooting at the synagogue of Kremenchuk, a city located 130 miles southeast of Kyiv, was discovered early last month but reported by the local Jewish community on Monday. The delay was planned “in order to prevent panic in the Jewish community of the city,” the news site Jewish.ru reported, quoting a spokesperson for the United Jewish Community of Ukraine, a communal interest group.
