Polish parliament passes bill to limit WW2 property restitution claims – Western diplomats in Warsaw voice concern over legislation; Foreign Minister Lapid slams bill, calling it a ‚disgrace that will not erase the horrors or the memory of the Holocaust‘ | ynetnews

Poland’s parliament late on Thursday passed a draft bill which is expected to make it harder for Jews to recover property seized by Nazi German occupiers and kept by postwar communist rulers, in a move set to fuel tensions with Israel and the United States.
Poland was home to one of the world’s biggest Jewish communities until it was almost entirely wiped out by the Nazis during World War Two. Jewish former property owners and their descendants have been campaigning for compensation since the fall of communism in 1989.
