Belarus Workers Move Bones from Jewish Cemetery to Dump 04/18/2008 - 12:12 / Israel Hasbara CommitteeWorkers rebuilding a sports stadium on top of an 18th century Jewish cemetery in Gomel, Belarus, consign the bones to city dumps reflects a pattern of indifference toward Belarus' Jewish heritage since Belarus was a Soviet republic. The Gomel cemetery was destroyed when the stadium was built in 1961, but the remains lay undisturbed until this spring when reconstruction began and a bulldozer turned up the first bones. Jewish leader Vladimir Gershanok asked the builders to put the bones into sacks for reburial at a cemetery with a monument to Holocaust victims. comments: 0
