Workers clean a monument that was defaced with the blue and yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag, in Krakow, Poland, Nov. 6, 2021. Days before Poland’s Independence Day vandals painted the blue-and-yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag on monuments. The vandalism, which took place as Russia massed troops near Ukraine’s border, looked as if Ukrainians were defacing memorials to Polish national heroes. Though prosecutors are still investigating, Polish and Ukrainian authorities believe it was most likely a Russian-inspired attempt to trigger ethnic hostility between Ukrainians and Poles.
