The monument, which commemorated Polish prisoners of war who died in the NKVD’s internment camp, was located in the village of Yogla. According to Anna Cherepanova, a deputy from the Yabloko party in Novgorod Oblast, the monument was unveiled in the early 1990s at the site where local victims of the Great Terror, as well as German, Austrian, Finnish, and Hungarian prisoners of war, are believed to be buried.
On October 30, Yabloko held the "Returning the Names"В event at the memorial.
"It was once unimaginable that barbarians would come here, destroying everything in their path, tearing down the crosses, smashing the plaques, and desecrating the memory. What harm did the Poles, who died 80 years ago, ever do to them?"В Cherepanova wrote.
The deputy called for finding those responsible for the vandalism and bringing them to justice.
Half a life with Memorial: the story of Krasnoyarsk resident who collected tens of thousands of repressed individuals’ names
Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, there have been multiple instances of memorials to victims of political repression being destroyed. For example, in the summer of 2024, a monument to Ukrainian victims of Soviet repression disappeared in Arkhangelsk Oblast. Another monument to repressed Poles was destroyed in Tomsk Oblast, but volunteers have subsequently restored it.
