Vandals deface British war cemetery
A British First World War cemetery in France has been desecrated by vandals.
A monument and 12 graves were daubed with pink swastikas, SS insignia and other graffiti.
The cemetery in the town of Loos-en-Gohelle holds British and Canadian soldiers who fell in a battle there in October 1915.
France's minister for veterans, Hubert Falco, said the desecration, which took place before dawn, was "an insult to the memory" of the soldiers and an "insult to France."
